Event Description:

The ASU School of Social Work & Center for Applied Behavioral Health Policy are excited to announce the 3rd Annual Winter Institute for First Responder & Behavioral Health Cross-training.

The hybrid in-person and online conference is scheduled for Thursday, April 8th and Friday, April 9th at ASU Skysong Innovation Center in Scottsdale, Arizona, and will broadcast synchronously via Zoom Meetings.

This conference effectively brings together experts, leadership, and veterans of Arizona Public Safety sectors including: firefighters, police officers, correctional personnel, dispatchers, emergency medical services and other first responders. Each year, over 250 attendees gather to learn about trauma-informed response, de-escalation, compassion/work fatigue, suicide prevention, self-care and drug-induced behavioral symptoms.

We hope to make these important educational opportunities accessible to First Responders across Arizona, as well as build upon the diversity of our educational sessions. We'll keep all the elements of fun, comradery, networking and conversing with like-minded colleagues, and we won't forget the SWAG!

Attendees will earn approximately 17 hours of CEUs depending on type. We will be providing the following continuing education: NAADAC, NASW, APA, NBCC & COJET.

Registration: Early Bird $189, General $249. Please email [email protected] for questions.
