The training is free, but participants must attend all three sessions.
• In order to participate, you must be an advanced practitioner or student (mental health clinicians, psychiatrists, pediatricians, nurse practitioners, and early intervention specialists) whose work with infants, young children, and their families involves assessment, diagnosis, and case formulation.
• There is a limit of 50 participants, and registration is first come, first served.
• The DC:0-5 Training Manual is required. You have the option of selecting the print manual, the digital manual, or both print and digital. The cost of the manual will be covered by grant funds, but if you choose to have a print copy you will need to pay the cost of shipping. (I have been told that this is generally between $5 and $10.) The discount code to remove the cost of the manual is IADC0521. Simply enter that in the Discount Code box and click “Apply”.
Here is the code for the manual: IADC0521

A recent CDC Study indicates that the proportion of children’s mental health-related ED visits have been on the rise since April 2020. This is of great concern, and NAMI Southwest Iowa wants to help. We began virtual weekly psycho-educational groups for parents, students and school staff that are led by a mental health professional and are FREE! Informational flyers and magnets were sent to schools last month to help get the word out about the Community Connections Groups. We want to go one step further and ask everyone to encourage school staff, students and parents to participate and help spread the word about Community Connections! In return, we are going to be keeping track of the number of attendees from each school district in Southwest Iowa (no names, just what school district they are from) from now until December 17th.
The school district that has the most participation during that time frame will win $500 from NAMI Southwest Iowa to use as they see fit for Mental Health resources for their school!
That’s it – no strings attached! Help us spread the word about Community Connections and help your school!
