2010 Saturday Clinical Continuity Series

Our DC Metro Chapter has long-provided excellent workshops on clinical and practice subjects. However, we are trying something a bit different during our Saturday Clinical Series that starts on February 20th. Rather than have a single workshop on a clinical theme, we are offering a series of workshops (up to 4 sessions) so that participants can not only benefit from theory and generalities--but can go out and practice what they gain in the workshop sessions. As you probably know, hearing a theory is one thing--but practicing the application of the theory is another. Most of us learn by doing--and that is the intention of our new series. Participants can learn from our experienced leaders--and also from one another--in this interactive series of workshops.
-Hal Lipton, President (NASW DC Metro Chapter)
