To practising physicians and lawyers who serve BC families experiencing high conflict separation and divorce:
Re: Health and Justice Alliance – ‘working together for families’ online events
Dr Ramneek Dosanjh, President of Doctors of BC, and Lisa Hamilton, QC, President of the Law Society of BC, are pleased to invite you to participate in two online events, May 18 and June 14, from 5–7:30 pm on ‘working together for families’ – a collaborative approach to serving families experiencing toxic stress as a result of separation and divorce. These events are co-hosted by the Law Society of BC, Access to Justice BC, and Doctors of BC.
For the sake of the families we serve, we must break down the silos we work in. Come and explore with us – physicians and lawyers together – the experiences of our patient/clients going through high conflict separation and divorce. Let’s get to know each other and learn from the differences and similarities of our own experiences and observations. Physicians and lawyers learning and working together can make a difference!
Have a look at this short video, ‘ACEs and the Family Justice system,’ to get a sense of the connection between the health and justice sectors.
In the first session on May 18, we will share observations, hear each other’s perspectives and explore the patient/client experience. In the second session on June 14, we will explore the theme “Start with Ourselves,” an opportunity to become more aware of the impact on professionals dealing with toxic situations, and to explore how best to serve our patient/clients.
If you are interested, please register now. If you have any questions, contact Jane Morley, QC at .
