Event Description:

Anxiety disorders are fairly common among children in schools. If negatively affects their daily life it increases the risk of severe mental health disorders in adulthood. This workshop will focus on the identification of various anxiety-based disorders that may be seen in schools. Consideration will also be given to cognitive behavioral intervention, an active, skill-focused approach, and how it can be integrated into school-based work.

SCECH & SW credits will be offered.

Due to funding guidelines there are 2 seats available for non-public schools, agencies and out-of-county participants at a cost of $20 per participant.
