Social Workers and social service staff, Investigators, and Mitigators (what we call the SWIM community) all play an invaluable role in public defender offices in Pennsylvania, across our community and for our clients. On this page, you'll find PDAP's offerings for folks working in these roles - mitigation resources, social service and investigative referral information, Zoom meet ups and a SWIM specific listserv. If you have any questions, would like to join the SWIM listserv, or have updates for our resources, please e-mail Julie Hyman at juliehymanconsulting@gmail.com
