I am excited to announce my commitment to two conferences in Massachusetts: Let's Get Real and Deepening Clinical Practice. I hope you can join me this summer as we continue to advocate for stronger families and resilient communities!
Let's Get Real
This workshop, on June 26, is designed for families and caregivers to better understand the impact of family violence on children and the family system as a whole. Grounded in a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach, the session provides accessible, supportive information that empowers caregivers while fostering hope, resilience, and healing.
Deepening Clinical Practice
This workshop, on July 31, provides social work practitioners, clinicians, and community professionals with practical strategies for delivering culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and client-centered care. Participants will explore how culture, identity, and systemic factors, including race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and historical trauma, shape clients' experiences and influence clinical outcomes. The session emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, encouraging participants to reflect on personal biases, assumptions, and power dynamics that may affect the helping relationship.
