Description

The AWARE Legal Aid Worker: Sustaining Your Practice, Sustaining Yourself is a 60-minute interactive webinar designed for legal aid advocates who regularly carry client trauma in their day-to-day work. This session introduces vicarious trauma in clear, accessible language, connects it directly to legal practice, and offers a simple “stress thermometer” to help participants notice when they are moving from manageable stress into overwhelm.
