Ethics for Department of Defense Advocates

Ethical decision-making is part of daily life for advocates working within the military environment, where chain of command, dual roles, confidentiality concerns, and mission expectations can create situations that are not always straightforward. 

This Justice Clearinghouse webinar will take a practical look at these real-world challenges and talk through how to respond with clarity and confidence. Participants will examine core ethical principles, review DoD policies and regulations that guide advocate conduct, and explore common dilemmas through case examples drawn from the field. This session offers tools to support survivors effectively while maintaining professionalism, integrity, and mission readiness.
