Medical Forensic Units & Services Within Family Justice Centers

Pre-Conference | Monday, November 2 | 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

Survivors shouldn’t have to choose between medical care, justice, and safety. Join four seasoned Family Justice Center leaders as they share real-world medical forensic models, lessons learned, and practical strategies for building sustainable healthcare partnerships. Explore ways to expand trauma-informed care, reduce barriers to exams and evidence collection, strengthen follow-up services, and improve multidisciplinary collaboration and legal outcomes. Whether you’re just beginning or ready to expand, you’ll leave with proven approaches and inspiration to create a survivor-centered healthcare model tailored to your community.
