As helping professionals, facilitators, coaches, even parents or educators we have probably tried a lot of new ideas with our clients, students and even children during the 5 months. The faculty would like to have two sessions of professional supervision with the community in which you can call in with your questions, situations with clients and students, and talk about the ways you have been working with them, and how you might deepen your effectiveness.

This is 3 hours with all four faculty members responding to your live questions about your work with others! Not to be missed!
