Meet Kathryn Brohl, author of
Working with Traumatized Children, at our
Speed Networking and Author Event!
Kathryn is a licensed marriage and family therapist with more than 35
years of experience as an administrator, published author,
psychotherapist, frontline worker, trainer, and consultant. She's the
author of CWLA best-selling titles, Working with Traumatized Children
and The New Miracle Workers, which she dedicated to child welfare
workers. Kathryn will sign books after she speaks.
Be part of what Entrepreneur.com refers to as "the newest craze to hit
the business world." Speed networking is a fast fun way to expand your
network of peers. You'll meet everyone in the room for just a few
minutes in a structured environment. Make more contacts in just one
night than most folks make in six months!
Head to Capitol Hill on Tuesday, January 26, to lobby for a White
House Conference for Children and Youth. CWLA members are instrumental
in passing legislation that improves children's lives, including the
recent and historic Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing
Adoptions Act. Find out how you can influence Congress.
Short on funds but want to attend the conference? Tap IV-E and
leftover training money. The program is a major source of funding for
training child welfare workers. Check with your state, and let federal
dollars augment your work.

Foster care and adoption
Advocacy
Cultural competence/disproportionality
Fund development/marketing
Kinship care
