TAPS ANNOUNCES TRAINING FOR SOCIAL WORKERS, NURSES, CHAPLAINS, CASUALTY OFFICERS, FAMILY PROGRAM STAFF, COUNSELORS, MFLCs, and MILITARY LEADERSHIP www.taps.org/professionaleducation

TAPS provides peer based emotional support for military surviving families. Part of our mission is to improve the training and continuing education for health and mental healthcare professionals dealing with children and families who suffer from traumatic grief. We are proud to announce quarterly educational training WEBINARS with a special focus on working with military surviving families and veterans.

On December 4, 2008, TAPS will conduct training on "Working with the Bereaved: Suicide Risk Assessment." This Webinar features expert speaker Dr. David Jobes (see attached flyer for more info). The training is accredited for 1.0 CEUs for Nurses and Social Workers and has been approved by NASW.

Please share this information with staff, colleagues and chapter members. We are making our best effort to reach out to those partnering organizations who are interested in helping the families of the Fallen and returning veterans and asking their help in disseminating this information. Thank you for spreading the word!

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Jill Harrington LaMorie, jill@taps.org.
