Anyone serving children and families in Broward County

Zoom

Working in a community-based or nonprofit organization and caring for individuals with needs and vulnerabilities may often occur at the price of our own self-care. Compassion fatigue, stress, and burnout are common collateral side effects of the “nurturing” professions. In this online introductory session, community workers and nonprofit professionals will learn the practice and science of mindfulness and review the main mindfulness-based modalities that promote self-care and proactive response to stress and vicarious trauma. Participants also learn how building personal balance and resilience enables them to improve work relationships and serve others in their care with greater compassion, energy, and effectiveness.

This training is online. A Zoom link will be provided one week before the training and a second registration will be required.
