SUMMARY:Social Work Meetup on Working With Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:This social worker meetup will discuss how we advocate for older adults intersecting with the criminal legal system. Whether it is through case management\, mitigation\, or other advocacy\, this population requires a different approach and cognizance of neurocognitive disease and other age related disorders. Come discuss your experience\, challenges\, and insights in working with and advocating on behalf of this group of clients! \nStephanne Cline Thornton is a West Virginia native who has worked in and around criminal defense and mitigation for more than 20 years in Georgia\, Colorado\, and West Virginia. She is currently the Social Work Training and Resource Coordinator for NAPD\, Clinical Director for the West Virginia Judicial and Lawyer Assistance Program\, and owner of Transform Legal\, a consultancy focused on mitigation\, training\, and sustainability. As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and Master Addiction Counselor\, Stephanne focuses on proper assessment for and access to trauma and substance use disorder treatment to ensure the health and well-being of affected individuals. Stephanne is on the Trauma-Informed Care Network Speakers Bureau and uses that platform to call attention to the intersection of secondary traumatic stress and legal practice. She approaches her work with clients\, lawyers\, social workers\, and mitigation specialists through a contextualized mitigation lens.
