Notes about consultation: Each participant is required to present at least 1 case they have been working with between days 1-3 and days 4-6 of the training. You will be meeting in small groups for consultation for a total of 10 hours in the 2nd 3 days of the training. It is very important that you fill this out for at least 1 and up to 3 cases.
We will be inviting and demonstrating nonviolence and the use of our SAFE model practices for the consultation.
