Despite the fact that many attorneys are routinely exposed to the highly traumatic experiences of our clients, not much attention is paid to the toll of secondary traumatic stress on our profession. Other workplace stressors, such as heavy caseloads and lack of support, can combine to make the strain even worse.  We will discuss support strategies from both an individual and organizational perspective, to help guard against, and heal from, the effects of secondary trauma and toxic stress.

FREE to attend! Please consider becoming a member of AAWL!
