Community social workers are invited to join us for the Rural Integrated Behavioral Health Training (RIBHT) program mini-workshop 3 of the 2019-2020 year. The RIBHT is a funded through a grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). The RIBHT program provides $10,000 in stipend support for advanced field placement to 20-25 MSW students per year to focus their studies on integrated behavioral health practice across the lifespan. One of the elements of the RIBHT is a mini-workshop series that is open to students, field instructors, agency staff, community, and university members. The goal of the mini-workshop series is to bring together students, practitioners, and faculty from various health professions to discuss specific issues relevant to rural integrated behavioral health practice.
The third RIBHT mini-workshop of the year is scheduled for Friday February 7 11:00am-12:30pm at the Holiday Inn in Morgantown. The session, entitled Impact of Parental Psychopathology on Children’s Development, will be presented by Dr. Lauren Swager, WVU Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist. Please join us if you are able and pass along to others who might be interested. 1.5 SW CEU’s are approved for WV, PA, MD & VA licensed social workers. Space is limited so please RSVP to reserve a spot (see attached flyer or contact Sara Guthrie (sg0067@mix.wvu.edu) to
