"Wellness Courts" presentation at the Alaska Tribal Court Conference

Each year Tanana Chiefs Conference, in partnership with the National Judicial College and University of Alaska, hosts the Alaska Tribal Court Development Conference where basic tribal court development and current topics are discussed. The Conference is intended to provide information to tribes just beginning tribal court development, for tribes that want to enhance or make modifications to their courts, and for tribes pursuing on-going tribal court information specific to Alaska. This year, the Tribal Law and Policy Institute presented on Healing to Wellness Courts to both preview the restorative justice model, as well as showcase an opportunity for tribal-state collaboration.
