Quinault Chief Judge Leona Colegrove submitted a General Inquiry Request for vicarious trauma training for her Healing to Wellness court staff. Chief Judge Colegrove specifically requested a training that was more comprehensive than a general "what is vicarious trauma" training. The general plan was to include how vicarious trauma shows up, what court staff can do to alleviate, how staff can support each other, how management/leadership can mitigate the effect on staff, etc.
The development of a guidance document and reference material outlining best practices for establishing JAG Advisory Boards for the Nebraska SAA's office is underway. This board will play a crucial role in supporting NCC's comprehensive strategic planning efforts.
