2020-2021 Calendar of General Meetings

 

Sunday, November 15, 2020
 
Supporting the First Responder
 
Time: 7:00 PM- 8:45PM
Format: Virtual

Presenter: Barbara Maurer, LPC, CTTS

 
First responders often put themselves in harms’ way for life saving/sustaining needs.  We know that first responders have high rates of traumatic exposure leaving them at risk for vicarious trauma and compassion fatigue.  This is exacerbated when the first responder is also directly affected by a disaster.  In these unprecedented times we are seeing psychological injuries in first responders at a high rate. This workshop will address some of the challenges and needs of working with first responders.  Evidence based practices will be discussed with some time allotted for discussion and questions.
