Actions to take to improve communication accessibility in legal spaces
Actions to take to improve communication accessibility in legal spaces
This one page information sheet celebrates 13 actions that people working in courts and other legal spaces can take to help to create a communication accessible setting.
Communication Postcards
These can be downloaded as a PDF to help professionals think about how they can help to communication as effectively as possible. These cards were developed as part of a project we did with a fabulous team of social workers and Family Group Conference coordinators at Oranga Tamariki Youth Justice. They were shared at a youth justice stakeholders meeting with Police Youth Aid, Drug and Alcohol Counsellors and others. Let us know how you use them and what impact they have.

COAT: Communication Observation Assessment Tool
COAT Communication Observation Assessment Tool Talking Trouble June 2021
We created this tool when providing training with youth justice professionals. The aim of the tool was to provide a structure to help the team consider the barriers to communication that they may want to amend or remove, and to consider the opportunities that could be taken or developed further. We have found it useful but it has not been validated or researched. If it is useful, please use it and let us know how you found it, and please acknowledge our authorship.
We have created a new version of this to help legal professionals think about the communication that will take place in a future interaction (with people of any age) so they can plan ahead and get the 'right' accommodations ready.

Communication Passports
We get lots of requests for templates for Communication Passports. There is no 'right' way to do these and each needs to be personalised for (and by!) the person the Communication Passport is for. If our templates are useful and give you ideas, please go ahead and use them. Please email us to let us know what you tried and how it went. We find people of all ages can find a Communication Passport a useful way to share what they want others to know and do to help communication go more smoothly.

Talking Trouble Aotearoa NZ resources about planning for effective communication in virtual (audio and video link) meetings/court appearances/phone calls
These resources were created during COVID lockdowns when many people suddenly needed to participate over audio or audio/visual links in important meetings. They continue to be relevant. For a wide range of reasons, effective particpation and communication can be challenging when people are face-to-face, and these resources provide suggestions about what to consider and what to do (and not do). There is a version for professionals to use and also versions for participants.
Virtual meeting planning (professionals)
Virtual meeting planning (participants - 1 pager)

We also collaborated with Intermediaries for Justice to make an interational version of these resources

Media relating to the release of Professor Ian Lambie's 2020 report: What were they thinking? A discussion paper on brain and behaviour in relation to the justice system in New Zealand included interviews with our team members on TV1 and Radio NZ and others. These can be found on our website here.

Top tips for Youth Justice staff
The list on this top tips for YJ staff sheet originated from Twitter. The wonderful Natalie Kippen (speech-language pathologist and researcher from Perth) had asked: “SPs/SLTs in #youthjustice, you are giving frontline staff 2 points to think about/tips to use, re:#communication, when working w youth. what are they?” Some great contributions came in from SLTs around the world and were compiled. We've used this list with staff in a Youth Unit to create discussion. Let us know what you try and how it goes.

NZSTA Giving Voice Communication Access Checklist
NZSTA (the New Zealand Speech-Language Therapists' Association) has a Giving Voice Aotearoa campaign on currently which we are proud to be part of. Use this Giving Voice checklist tool to help reflect on how communication is at your place/in your service. This is a quick and easy tool that you can use yourself or with your team to think about things you can do to make your place and service easier from a communication perspective. Sally from our team was involved in the development of this tool, which takes a similar approach to what we have used in some of the big projects we have been involved in. For example, recently we used it in a conference workshop to help Paediatricians to think about how they communicate with children and families/whānau using their services and what they'd like to change. If you use it, get in touch and tell us how it has gone for you or explore the links below for things you can do to make things easier.

Elaine recently presented in Auckland with Barry Prizant about working with families and their content was inspiring and so practical. You can get a taste of Elaine's approach on this video, 'On being present, not perfect'.
Impact of trauma on children
There are many excellent sources of information about how experiences of abuse, trauma, family violence and negative experiences can affect children's development (including speech, language and communication development), but some that we particularly like are listed below:
Richard Rose's 'Serve and Return' This short video shows his beautiful explanation of how attachment develops between children and parent and how this process can be disrupted. Richard delivers Life Story Work and has authored some very useful books on this and delivers training which is superb for anyone wanting to assist children to understand their own lives and have a way of talking about what has happened to them. Great ideas for developing emotional literacy too.
Harvard Centre on the Developing Child
Put aside a few hours to explore this amazing resource and sign up for their newsletters: https://developingchild.harvard.edu/
