Dear Safe Schools Coalition members and friends,
"Developing the Capacity of School Counselors To Address Health and Mental Health Needs of LGBQ Youth" (March 22; Anaheim, CA)
*****************************
The American Psychological Association's Healthy Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual Students Project will present a full-day workshop at the American Counseling Association's Annual Convention in Anaheim, CA on Saturday, March 22, 2003.
The workshop will be presented by J. Davidson Porter, Ph.D. & Carolyn Greer, Ph.D. This training curriculum has been used at over twenty state and national professional conferences over the past year with very positive feedback from participants. The curriculum includes an overview on the most recent social science data related to LGBQ youth, participant small group work and cooperative learning, and the presentation of a model for effectively working with this population around prevention of health and mental health risks, including HIV infection.
This workshop will take place from 9:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m. in the Anaheim Convention Center. Completion of the workshop will provide 6.0 Continuing Education Contact Clock Hours (CE Hours). Best of all, ACA is pleased to announce that the registration for this workshop is only $20.00.
