May 12, 2017

Mindful Practice Training for Direct Care Providers

Monday, June 12
7:00pm to 9:30pm
4th floor classroom at 440 River Road
.
This 2.5 hr workshop will be facilitated by Andrew Terhoch, a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), who has been providing services to individuals supported by St.Amant for a number of years now. St.Amant partnered with Andrew to develop and deliver this curriculum. The organization has committed to ensure all of our staff that provides direct care services receive this training. It was suggested that we should make this training available to family members. To pilot this idea, the St.Amant Association has dedicated their June meeting date and time to the delivery of this initial session, and has agreed to host and provide refreshments. This invitation is being extended to all families connected to St.Amant services. The maximum number of participants for this session is 30. We will schedule future opportunities if we cannot accommodate all interested parties in this session.
Please RSVP by June 8th if you plan to attend this session – RSVP to:
