SUMMARY:Problem Solving Workshop
DESCRIPTION:May 31\, 2023\n10:00AM-1:15PM\nThe presentation will equip attendees with a simple problem-solving methodology developed by Dr. Barry Smith thirty-five years ago.

It offers a streamlined version of the scientific method\, proving its effectiveness even in resource-constrained environments\, addressing individuals’ problems and fundamental challenges faced by physical and mental health systems. \nREGISTER NOW\nThe workshop will cover the following key steps: \n\nListing and prioritizing the problems individuals are encountering.\nDefining the highest priority problem (or a crucial aspect of it) by analyzing its nature\, cause\, and contributing factors.\nDeveloping a solution by posing a well-crafted question using the general framework: “What action\, involving whom\, for how long\, will yield the desired outcome?”\nFormulating a concise and actionable Plan of Action spanning one to two pages.\nTaking decisive action to implement the plan.\nConducting an evaluation to gauge the degree of success and identify areas for improvement\, ensuring a continuous process of growth and progress.\n\nThrough this workshop\, participants will gain valuable insights into an accessible problem-solving approach\, enabling them to address challenges more effectively and achieve desired outcomes. \nPresented by: DR. Barry Smith\, MD\, PhD \nDr. Smith received his Bachelor of Arts degree from Harvard University\, his PhD in Molecular Biology from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and his MD from Cornell University Medical College with residency training at New York Hospital\, Massachusetts General Hospital\, and Memorial-Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

He is a New York State-licensed clinical social worker and psychologist with over 25 years of providing mental health services to children\, youth and families. \nOCTOBER\, 27TH\, 2022 \nTIME: 10:00AM-12:00PM \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:Mental Health 101: Awareness Training
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, March 24th\, 2022\n10:00 am – 12:00PM \nPresented by: Jasmine Lucas\nEmail: jlucas@mhaw.org \nGoals of the training: \n\nIncrease basic knowledge of mental health to help reduce stigma.\nUnderstand Mental Health as a continuum of wellness that defines us every day — it is\nillness\, recovery and all of the space in between.\nPromote wellness\, treatment seeking behavior\, recovery and self-care.\n\nWhy is this important?\nConsider this: the median time between the onset of mental illness (when symptoms first appear) and when an individual gets appropriate treatment is 10 years. During that time time\, a person is likely experiencing periods of increased symptomology and periods of wellness.\nMental Health and recovery are dependent on an individual’s ability to recognize and manage where he/she is each day on the continuum between wellness and illness and take care accordingly\, an important piece to quality of life. Education and early intervention promotes wellness. \nJoin zoom meeting: bit.ly/3w5cVaO\n  \nMeeting ID: 832 3192 0066 | Passcode: 167971 \nIf you have any questions or concerns\, please contact Heather Tafuro\, at htafuro@ftnys.org\, or Cheryl Williams\, at cwilliams@ftnys.org
