WEBINAR DETAILS
As social workers, chaplains, and spiritual care counselors, we need to be knowledgeable and skillful in our work with veterans now at the end of their lives. In the medical world we hear people say that “children cannot be treated as small adults” and likewise, it is important to recognize the unique experiences and needs of our veterans. In this webinar we will explore ways to assist veterans and members of their circles of support to find meaning in life, dying and trauma, as well as learn specific counseling skills that are essential as we provide a more clinical and focused approach to trauma-informed care.
