21st Century Forensic Practice - National Organization of Forensic

21st Century Forensic Practice:
Moving Beyond Cultural Competence
31st Annual Conference of the
National Organization of Forensic Social Work
July 25-27, 2014
Fordham University Lincoln Center Campus
New York City
Conference Goal:
Advancing Forensic Practice: Promoting Innovation Worldwide
In this century of changing demographics and policy and system reform, this year’s NOFSW conference will feature inter-professional learning opportunities on how to integrate cultural competence with justice in clinical, organizational, community, and
policy practice. This year’s conference will advance a new century of cultural justice, dignity, respect, and acceptance for all
persons. Many forensic populations, such as racial and ethnic minorities, at-risk youth, the elderly, veterans, immigrants, LGBTQ
persons, persons with disabilities, or those living in poverty or communities of violence often lack access to quality services and
cultural justice. Conferences attendees will increase their knowledge, values, and skills for working with forensic populations in
healthcare, social service, and legal settings, including the courts and corrections.
The conference also includes the unique opportunity for attendees to attend field visits to innovative local and global organizations that advance cultural justice, live performances of the use of the arts for healing and rehabilitation, a prison art show, and
film screenings with follow-up discussions with film directors. This year’s conference presentations also will be considered for our
upcoming published book of conference proceedings or eligible for publication in the Journal of Forensic Social Work.
Who Should Attend?
This conference is targeted to practicing Social Workers and related professionals who are working in any way related to legal
issues and litigation, both criminal and civil. Social workers with little or no forensic practice experience, related professionals
with little or no social work education and experience and students may find some of the sessions advanced but useful.
Continuing Education:
Each workshop will be awarded CEUs based actual contact hours. Continuing education units (CEU’s): up to 19 hours for
attendance will be provided for conference attendees. General membership meetings and introductory sessions are not eligible
for CEUs. Attendees are required to attend the full session, sign in for each session as well as complete and sign the evaluation
form for each session they attend. Licensees should reference their state’s continuing education requirements for
specific requirements and restrictions. CEU certificates will be awarded and mailed to attendees within 30 days of the
completion of the conference. Grievances must be submitted in writing to NOFSW’s postal mail address or electronically to
[email protected]. All grievances will be reviewed by the NOFSW Social Worker Consultant and may be appealed to the NOFSW
Executive Council.
Conference Location and Hotel Accommodations:

10023. There are a variety of hotels in the midtown Manhattan section of New York CIty. A list of hotels that offer discounts to

Keynote Presentation: Finding the Place for Cultural Humility in the Healing Process, Robert Ortega, PhD, Associate
Professor, University of Michigan School of Social Work. A cultural humility perspective is fundamentally
geared toward acknowledging the limitations of cultural knowledge beyond self-knowledge. Through
cultural humility, cultural stereotypes and culture-bound assumptions about specific cultures and cultural
identities are actively and critically examined. Helping professionals are challenged to learn to identify and
build on assets and adaptive strengths of child maltreatment victims and their families, inclusive of their
intersectional, cultural self-definitions. This presentation advocates for engaging in culturally responsive
practice inclusive of cultural humility that recognizes the unique contributions that victims and their families
can make in the child maltreatment recovery process.
