*Meets Diversity Requirements

Learning Objectives:  

• Explore how grief is connected to our experiences with and of oppression as related to our various social identities.
• Identify one’s own experiences with grief related to oppression and how this shows up in professional settings.  
• Develop strategies for supporting clients through a lens of social justice.  

Course Description: In every diverse community or organization, individuals each hold various social identities, some causing unearned privilege and others facing oppression. Regardless of our positionality, we all have experiences with oppression across various identities (e.g., as a witness, participant in the system, or as a target). Subsequently, experiences with and of oppression can cause grief and/or trauma related to each of those identities we hold. Grief and/or trauma can show up unexpectedly and can be misinterpreted as problematic behaviors, particularly when it is unattended to or cannot be resolved due to oppressive systems. This presentation will explore various types of loss and grief associated with different social identities and how those impact our professional interactions.      Bios: Beth Barrett, M.S.W., LCSW, CDFT is an associate clinical professor and faculty field liaison for SLU’s School of Social Work.     She teaches courses in social work clinical skills, end-of-life, grief, and integrative practice seminars.

Presenter: Charles Franke, LCSW

*Meets Ethics Requirement

• Understand the risks and concerns unique to social work that can affect our proficient access to the use of self.  
• Differentiate between moral injury, compassion fatigue, burnout and secondary trauma along with the ways these concerns create direct concerns related to ethical treatment.  
• Apply the concept of the self of the social worker with multiple strategies for valuing and connecting to their sense of self.

Course Description: The self of the social worker is one of the primary tools that allows for effective treatment and services of the populations we work with. Our ability to understand our own experience of our work, process that experience, and apply that experience in helpful and ethical ways is paramount to our work. This incredible sensitivity and utilization of self also exposes us to compassion fatigue, moral injury, burnout and secondary trauma. Social workers are expected to hold space for the most difficult situations, and often, we are experiencing this exposure alone. As a result of this difficulty, we must ensure we are self-aware, utilizing support and supervision, and ensuring our compliance with the code of ethics is intact. In this training, we will look deeply at the self of the social work along with all of its applications. This training will discuss the uses of self and strategies for building safety to preserve and value that sense of self as professionals.     Bio: Charles “Chaz” Franke, LCSW, is an adjunct professor in the School of Social Work and is a therapist and clinical supervisor for Light Source, a small group practice in Belleville, Illinois,

Since beginning his career as a therapist, he has worked with trauma and its long-reaching effects. This work has included extensive work with all ages and all walks of life. He specializes in self-compassion and integrating Eastern thought and philosophy into the therapeutic process. Chaz provides both clinical and reflective supervision to clinicians across many settings to help further their ability to find their voice in the field and maintain engagement in their work.   

Time: 1-4 p.m.    Modality: Zoom    Presenter: Monica Matthieu, Ph.D., LCSW

• Assess the types of lethal means and best practice approaches to mitigating risk.  
• Describe the elements of a patient-centered approach to promoting safety behaviors. 
• Practice talking to clients about the safe storage of lethal means such as firearms and poisons.  

Course Description: Lethal means are objects that may be used by individuals experiencing a suicidal crisis. They include things like guns, medications, alcohol, opioids, other substances, ropes, cords or sharp objects. If an individual is in crisis or is having suicidal thoughts, these items can become deadly if easily accessible. Increasing the time and distance between a person in suicidal crisis and their access to lethal means can reduce suicide risk and save lives. This session will provide an overview of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Keep It Secure program, which promotes awareness about the simple steps you can take to protect yourself and your family. Attendees will also learn and practice skills for lethal means safety counseling (LMSC) a patient-centered approach to promoting safety behaviors by aligning evidence-based recommendations with patients’ preferences and values.     Bio: Monica M. Matthieu Ph.D., LCSW is an associate professor in the School of Social Work at Saint Louis University and is a research social worker for the Central Arkansas Veterans Health Care System, Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).      Matthieu is engaged in research and program evaluation related to VA’s national suicide prevention program, implementation of trauma treatment in the VA, and improving assessment, intervention, and referral to treatment for individuals at risk for suicide in social service and health care settings in the St. Louis metro area.

This course focuses on approaching and facilitating conversations with students and other groups related to these events, providing approaches for effectively facilitating them.  

Participants will gain insights into fundamental facilitation strategies such as identifying group dynamics, employing multi-partiality, and utilizing LARA to help navigate these conversations. This knowledge will help participants gain confidence in navigating tough conversations and situations.    Bio: Kenya Brumfield-Young, M.L.S., M.S.C.J. is an assistant professor and the internship coordinator for the criminology/criminal justice program within the School of Social Work at Saint Louis University.     Bio: Heather Lewis, M.S.W., Ed.S., BCBA serves a dual role as the assistant director of field education for students pursuing their M.S.W. or M.S.

This workshop will present current research findings on the alarmingly high rates of chronic traumatic exposures experienced across the life course by those involved in the criminal justice system and explore why these matter to intervention with this population. It will then discuss the value of a trauma-informed approach and offer specific strategies to use with this population in a range of settings.    Bio: Maria Morrison, Ph.D., LCSW, recently joined the faculty of SLU’s School of Social Work as an assistant professor after 20 years of social work practice.      Morrison is also a senior social worker at the Equal Justice Initiative, a non-profit human rights organization providing legal services to individuals who have been unjustly sentenced and challenging racial and economic injustice.

• Identify and interpret an individual’s level of readiness for change.
• Articulate best practice interventions based on an individual’s stage of change and level of readiness for change.
• Design stage-based intervention-driven treatment plans. 

Course Description: This learning opportunity will provide a foundation of knowledge on which the clinician can align treatment intervention with an individual’s level of readiness for change. Participants will be moved from simply defining the stage of change to clinically utilizing this common model to develop treatment plans with stage-based, best-practice interventions.

Continuing education for health professions.

MU Continuing Education for Health Professions (CEHP)  provides evidenced-based, relevant and responsive learning activities designed to narrow professional practice gaps with respect to knowledge, competence, and performance of the healthcare team. A commitment to lifelong learning, in partnership with those we serve, contributes to excellence in practice and improved health outcomes .

The University of Missouri continues to strengthen its commitment to improving the health and wellbeing of Missourians. In 2020, five units were brought together into the Office of Health Outreach, Policy and Education (HOPE). These units – the Missouri Telehealth Network, the Rural Track Pipeline Program, the Center for Health Policy, Community Health Engagement and Outreach, and Continuing Medical Education (CME) – span MU Extension and the School of Medicine. In 2021, MU Nursing Outreach (MUNO) joined HOPE, adding the Sinclair School of Nursing to this group.

In adding MUNO, Extension and HOPE leadership realized that a truly interprofessional Continuing Education division would offer a stronger support system to people who work across the healthcare team. Thus, two historically powerful CE programs were merged into one, and Continuing Education for Health Professions (CEHP) was formed.

But the story doesn’t end there. CEHP is building a Steering Committee made up of health professionals from many different disciplines, who will make sure that educational needs and practice gaps are identified and met, and that the voices of these professionals are heard throughout the planning, execution, and evaluation of our activities.

Check out our current portfolio of planned events. Contact us to let us know how we may best meet your needs as you provide care for the people of Missouri.
