The Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission (JCJC) is very excited to announce that the 2022 James E. Anderson Pennsylvania Conference on Juvenile Justice will return to the Hilton Harrisburg on Wednesday, November 2 through Friday, November 4, 2022. With the Conference returning to an in-person event, Resource Day will be held on Friday, November 4 between 8:00 am – 11:00 am. We invite you to join us as an exhibitor at Resource Day, where your organization can inform and educate a wide variety of conference attendees, including but not limited to juvenile court judges, juvenile court hearing officers, juvenile probation staff, attorneys, providers, and other system stakeholders.

Your long-standing devoted service to our juvenile justice system is valued, recognized, and appreciated. The past few years have provided previously unimaginable challenges, yet the provider community adapted and continued to provide high-quality services to youth and families across the Commonwealth. Again, the JCJC appreciates your perseverance and dedication to our system.

As a small sign of our appreciation, exhibitor fees for this year’s Resource Day are waived. The announcement provides details regarding this year’s conference. We truly believe attendance will be outstanding as we return to an in-person event for the first time since 2019, providing a great opportunity for providers to interact with a large number of conference attendees.

If you are interested in becoming an exhibitor during this year’s event, please contact Michael Yoder, Juvenile Court Judges’ Commission, electronically or at 717-705-9006.

For further information, please contact RCPA Children’s Policy Director Jim Sharp.

Devi Miron Murphy, PhD
Shari L. Wade, PhD

Speaker Bios:
Devi Miron Murphy, PhD, is an Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences and Director of Training, Clinical Psychology at the Tulane School of Medicine. Dr. Murphy’s clinical interests are psychotherapy and psychological assessment with youth and families. Specifically, her clinical activities include the assessment and treatment of young children and their families who have experienced trauma, such as abuse, neglect, exposure to domestic violence, and medical injuries. She is also interested in the evaluation and treatment of attachment disruptions. Dr. Murphy’s research interests include investigating long-term social, emotional, and cognitive outcomes in children who have had traumatic experiences and promoting sensitive caregiving for young children in foster care. Through her research and training endeavors, Dr. Murphy contributes to the development and dissemination of evidence-based treatments for traumatized youth.

Dr. Shari Wade is a tenured professor at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine and Director of Research in the Division of Rehabilitation Medicine at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. She is a highly experienced rehabilitation psychologist who has conducted federally-funded research examining outcomes of traumatic brain injury and factors that influence outcomes since 1991. This research has been widely cited (h-index = 65 and i10-index = 189) and shaped how the field understands the role of social environmental factors on recovery and the effects of TBI on child and family functioning over time. For the past 20+ years, she has conducted single site and multicenter randomized clinical trials of interventions to reduce morbidity following pediatric TBI, including some of the first Class 1 clinical trials. She pioneered the development and testing of technology-based interventions to reduce behavioral and family consequences of pediatric TBI, beginning with an R21 award from NICHD in 2001. She is currently conducting a multi-site RCT examining the efficacy of a brief, online intervention to reduce post-traumatic stress following medical trauma.

Objectives:
At the end of the session, the learner will:

  • Define and list key principles of trauma-informed care;
  • Identify 3 indicators of post-traumatic stress;
  • Define secondary traumatic stress;
  • Identify a brief screening tool for Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSS); and
  • Describe key components of brief trauma-informed interventions for PTSS following traumatic injury.

Audience: This webinar is intended for all members of the rehabilitation team, including medical staff, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech language pathologists, licensed psychologists, mental health professionals, and other interested professionals.
