LOOKING FORWARD ——
Since its founding in 2009 by a group of visionary social work leaders, The Helen Rehr Center can boast a number of accomp-lishments including two publica-tions on social work practice, the sponsorship of timely colloquia and the ground breaking Gerontological Social Work Practice Fellows supervisor training program (GSWPF). For the past three years Board Chairman Christopher Oates, LCSW has led these efforts.
Looking forward, The Center is expanding its training program for social work supervisors in settings providing services to children and families. We are planning one day workshops that will lay the groundwork for a comprehensive program model-ed after the suc-cessful Geronto-logical Social Work Practice Fellows. Joining us in this and other initiatives are three new members of the Center Board, Karisma Ajodah, Carolyn Hutson, and Priscilla Liriano.
As with GSWPF the support of individuals and foundations is essential to the implementation of pilot programs demonstrating the efficacy of the program that later can be funded by tuitions. Please donate whatever amount you can to help us further the Center mission of enhancing agency based social work practice.
