Monthly Webinars

Quoted from the informational e-mail:

"The National Technical Assistance Center for Children's Mental Health, at the Georgetown University Center for Child and Human Development, is again sponsoring this exciting and well-received monthly series of topical webinar calls. The calls cover important and emerging trends in the mental health field."

http://gucchdtacenter.georgetown.edu/resources/2011calls.html

These webinars are typically on the third Thursday of each month from 1:00 - 2:30.

The ones from January - March appear to me to be policy related rather than therapy related. The ones in April and June are about Systems of Care; the one in May looks like it is focused on treatment; it is about co-occurring Dx of substance abuse and other mental health disorders.
