CORT First Friday Webinar - Effective Representation of Clients in Recovery

Description

Panelists: 

• Brendan Wood, Legal Aid of West Virginia
• Matthew Vincel, The Legal Aid Society of Cleveland
• Brandon George, Indiana Addictions Issues Coalition

This CORT webinar presentation will address what all legal aid staff need to know about working with people in recovery from substance use disorder. How can de-stigmatizing language, awareness of issues specific to people in recovery, and best practice tips from those with lived experience improve our services? Join us for a panel discussion with experts Brendan Wood and Matthew Vincel, legal aid attorneys with experience serving people in recovery, and Brandon George, who has worked with the Indiana Court system to ensure court processes are supporting people recovering from addictions.
