Dr. Stephanie Covington, is an internationally recognized clinician, author, organizational consultant, and lecturer. She is a pioneer in the fields of addiction, trauma, and recovery. Covington will present on March 20, 2025. Course Description: Over the past twenty-five years, our recognition of trauma and its impact has increased dramatically, and we have added significantly to our understanding of justice-involved people. With this increased awareness, criminal justice professionals are considering what this means in their specific settings and becoming trauma informed and responsive. While research and clinical experience indicate a high incidence of trauma and co-occurring disorders in people’s lives, the impact of vicarious trauma is also being documented. This is a crucial consideration in capital cases where the descriptions of violence can impact jurors, family members, witnesses, judges, attorneys, and courtroom staff.
