We are especially interested in hearing from people trained and experienced in working with children and adolescents, as we move to meet the needs of couples and families. Eventually we will be looking for group leaders and workshop leaders/trainers and psychoeducation teachers.

**Veteran’s Heart Georgia is committed to enhancing the skills of healing professionals.  Since 2008 we have been creating and sponsoring training workshops. The next workshop will be led by Dr. Blaine Everson, author of FAMILIES UNDER FIRE, on Friday, September 9, 2011. This date is a special one, so near to the 10- year mark of the 9/11 attack. Details will be available soon.

Other resources to augment the professional’s knowledge base include:

The Coming Home Project, www.ComingHomeProject.net, has a Training Library with excellent video presentations. We highly recommend the series by John Briere, and the program on Military Culture. The recent program, “Working With Children in Military Families” will be available online soon.

We periodically send email announcements concerning continuing education. Click on Join Us or Sign up for Newsletter on the homepage, and provide your contact information to be included in future emailings.

Many professionals will be needed to carry out our mission of healing the wounds of war. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN EXPLORING YOUR PLACE IN THIS HEALING WORK, PLEASE CONTACT US, JOIN US.

I held out my hands & asked where I could help & somebody grabbed me & pointed me towards the future & said, You’ve got your work cut out for you & I said, isn’t there anything easier? & he laughed & said you could dig around in the past but it’s just busywork & that made perfect sense so I shrugged & started right where I was, along with everyone else
