Upcoming Support Groups
The Weight of Responsibility: When the Stakes Feel Too High, 1.5 CEUS
Social workers often carry the weight of high-stakes decisions that impact the safety and well-being of others. This session offers space to reflect on the pressure of responsibility, the fear of getting it wrong, and how we hold and process these experiences.

The Emotional Labor of Caring Professions, 1.5 CEUS
Social work requires deep emotional presence. This session explores the often invisible emotional labor of supporting others, and creates space to acknowledge, process, and care for ourselves within that work.

Finding Community in a Demanding Profession, 1.5 CEUS
