WSU Law Journal of Law in Society to host symposium
Wayne State University Law School's Journal of Law in Society will host its 2023 Symposium March 8-10 from 12:15-1:30 PM in room 2242. The Symposium will explore the application of a trauma-informed legal approach to addiction-related crimes.
The intersection of trauma, substance use, and crime is well established and has led to novel legal approaches to these issues such as the creation and implementation of drug courts, holistic defense models, therapeutic jurisprudence, and harm reduction techniques. Trauma-informed legal practice offers a compassionate approach through which the legal community can further improve outcomes and reduce the impact of vicarious trauma on legal professionals.
