SUMMARY:Virtual - The Color of Mitigation Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Color of Mitigation is aimed at practitioners of color that work as\, or are interested in\, becoming mitigation specialists. \nWhat is a mitigation specialist? Mitigation specialists are vital members of criminal defense teams\, representing clients that are facing the death penalty in 24 out of 50 states in addition to those charged at a federal level. They are skilled members of the death penalty or capital teams who conduct life history investigations to humanize clients to the courts\, juries\, and other decision-makers. \nThe Color of Mitigation will welcome those interested in this area of defense work and provide critical training for those in the field. Accomplished members of the capital defense community will lead conference sessions and help build a strong professional network. \nWe will also help attendees build their professional/company profiles and assist them in gaining access to the field\, one that serves many people of color as defendants but does not have an open door for practitioners of color. \nTopics will include \n\nThe Evolution and Future of Mitigation\nNavigating Racial Dynamics in Capital Defense\nAdvanced Mitigation Techniques: Crafting Compelling Life Stories\nThe Intersection of Mental Health and Mitigation\nBuilding a Career in Mitigation: Access\, Networking\, and Growth\nThe Role of Race\, Identity\, and Client Advocacy\nWellness and Resilience in High-Stakes Advocacy\nClosing Session: Reflecting on Our Work and Moving Forward\n\nThis training is curated for: \n\nPersons of color\nCapital Mitigation investigators\nSocial workers interested in capital work\nInvestigators doing mitigation on capital cases\nFact investigators transitioning into mitigation investigation\nCapital mitigation attorneys\nClient advocates preparing mitigation and alternative sentencing plans\, etc.\n\nApply for a Scholarship .  Deadline Oct 15.
