Below you will find the Tribal Law and Policy Institute?s presentation materials from the NADCP Conference. We look forward to seeing you at the Wellness Court Enhancement Training! Tribal Nations Forum Tribal Law and Policy Institute The Tribal Nations Forum is an opportunity for tribal courts in attendance to gather, meet other Tribal Wellness Courts, learn about tribal-specific resources, and develop a game-plan for the conference. This is an excellent opportunity to network with other courts and comparable roles, learn about different models, and brainstorm on common challenges being faced by tribes. Relapse Prevention Mark Panasiewicz and Blake Panasiewicz The road towards sobriety often includes the potential for or actual relapse. Drug Court and Healing to Wellness Court?s structured supervision and accountability helps provide short-term consistency, but a participant can grow accustomed to the Drug Court/Wellness Court safety net. Too often, relapse has been viewed as failure, returning clients to the revolving criminal justice door. It is critical, therefore, that Drug Courts and Wellness Courts be able to identify relapse warning signs, and have strategies for both preventing and coping with relapse. This workshop with detail those warning signs, discuss common policies that have the potential to enable relapse, and discuss effective strategies for returning a participant to a good path. Building Stronger Families & Brighter Futures ? The Unique Adaptations of the Family Drug Court and Family Tribal Healing to Wellness Courts to Better Serve Children, Families, and Communities Marianna Corona and Lauren van Schilfgaarde The drug court movement led to numerous adaptations by jurisdictions and communities who wanted to take a problem-solving approach to better serve individuals and families affected by substance use disorders and other co-occurring issues. Child welfare and dependency court advocates developed the Family Drug Court (FDC) model to improve the poor recovery, safety, and permanency outcomes for families affected by parental substance use. For tribal communities, the development of Family Tribal Healing to Wellness courts integrated drug court principles with tribal values, laws, and resources. This workshop will discuss both movements, best practices, and strategies to improve collaboration between county and tribal communities. Each of the presenters will draw from available research and their own professional experience and expertise working with a multitude of programs. The presentation will highlight how tribal child welfare systems differ from State and County systems and how the family-centered approach of both models uniquely promote family recovery and stability. Attendees who want to increase their understanding of Tribal communities and learn strategies to better serve tribal families in their jurisdiction are invited to attend this session. Healing to Wellness Courts: A National Survey and Latest Research on Tribal Healing to Wellness Courts HTWC: A National Survey Part I HTWC: A National Survey Part II Charlene Jackson, Juliette Mackin, Chad Rodi, and Lauren van Schilfgaarde While Tribal Healing to Wellness Courts have been in operation for nearly twenty years, no comprehensive research has ever been conducted. Drug Court best practices and standards have numerous applications, yet they are not tribal-specific. After a decade in the field, this workshop will overview the findings of the Tribal Law and Policy Institute?s numerous onsite technical assistance visits to offer observed insights into some of the unique challenges, and innovations, of Tribal Healing to Wellness Courts. Serving Beyond High Risk/High Need in Tribal Healing to Wellness Courts Mark Panasiewicz and Blake Panasiewicz Tribal Healing to Wellness Courts often have smaller caseloads. Rather than turning potential participants away, Wellness Courts often have room for more. Nevertheless, potential participants vary along the high risk/high need spectrum, and thus require different types and dosages of treatment, and should avoid mixing with participants in other quadrants. This workshop will explore serving participants of different risk and need, such as through separate tracks, the continued importance of screening, and maximizing resources to serve the needs of the community. Tribal-State Collaborations Lauren van Schilfgaarde, Kimberly Sweet, Matt Oakley, Hans Klodt Tribal, county, and municipal courts often unfortunately share a tumultuous relationship stemming from years of tension and misunderstanding. Yet these same courts share overlapping and complex jurisdictions, often with overlapping participants. With a scarcity of resources, and a growing need for culturally responsive services, problem-solving courts have led the charge for collaboration. From referral agreements, to shared behavioral health, to joint jurisdiction courts, Drug Courts and Healing to Wellness Courts are engaging in numerous and innovative collaborations. This workshop will detail these collaborations, and provide strategies and examples for effective collaboration. Participant Rights in Healing to Wellness Court Carrie Garrow, Charlene Jackson, and Lauren van Schilfgaarde Protecting a participant?s due process rights is a foundational component of Healing to Wellness Courts. However, this process differs significantly from adversarial courts. Moreover, the due process rights within tribal court differs both mechanically and substantively from non-tribal courts. This workshop will overview key considerations for when and how a participant?s due process rights are affected, and steps the Wellness Court can take to ensure the participant?s rights are protected, especially when a defense counselor or advocate may not be present. Ethics in Healing to Wellness Court Carrie Garrow and Charlene Jackson Tribal Healing to Wellness Court sheds much of the formality of adversarial proceedings. But Healing to Wellness Courts are not relieved of the same ethical boundaries and considerations. With collaboration among different agencies, frequent interactions with participants, and the increased potential for ex parte and confidential communications, Wellness Court practitioners must maneuver distinct and sometimes competing ethical considerations. This workshop will overview some of these ethical considerations ranging from the attorney to the treatment provider?s perspective. Topics will include confidentiality, relationships among team members and participants, and the inter-relationship of Wellness Court duties and distinct professional ethical obligations.

Message-ID: [http://d31hzlhk6di2h5.cloudfront.net/20170710/f9/1f/53/80/54c0b2161e7208801f626f0c_1280x320.png] Trauma-Informed Court Systems A Webinar for Tribal Communities [http://d31hzlhk6di2h5.cloudfront.net/20170710/1e/a1/38/b8/4e47243ae7f1c9f8f7cf694b_560x364.png] Thursday, July 27, 2017 at 12 pm PT / 1 pm MT / 2 pm CT / 3 pm ET (90 minutes) Are you interested in learning how courts are valuing tradition while recognizing trauma? Come join us for a free webinar to hear how trauma-informed courts can improve outcomes for Native youth and families! Research continues to clarify how traumatic experiences negatively impact the way traumatized people interact with the world. When an individual becomes court-involved it is highly likely that they have experienced some level of trauma. If the court system is not trauma-informed they can be re-traumatized, often triggering harmful reactions. Tribal communities have the challenge of addressing the traumatic experiences of individuals while at the same time dealing with the after effects of historical and intergenerational traumatic patterns that have affected entire communities. However, tribes also have strengths found in their traditional teachings that provide inspiration for strategies to address trauma in all its forms. This webinar will explain what is meant by the phrase trauma-informed courts, provide data about challenges facing tribes around the country, discuss how trauma looks in the court setting, and then provide practical ideas about how to incorporate both traditional values and research-based strategies to make tribal court systems not only trauma-informed but trauma-responsive.
