Taught by Meji Singh, PhD

We are excited to announce that Dr. Singh and the Community Behavioral Health Practice Training Center are accepting registration for the next course, Public Health Approach to Promote the Psychological Well-being of a Community, taking place on Wednesday , March 4, 2020! 

Course Description:
In this course, the concepts of Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Prevention will be introduced. This course will focus on the knowledge and skills required to prevent mental disorders and promote Psychological well-being of the community we serve. When individuals have to adapt to a new situation or "transition" in life it creates new challenges. Often, already existing cultural institutions or programs can help them to cope with the new challenges. At times, such resources are not sufficient; either the resources are inadequate or the individual needs accede the available resources. Two major conceptual frameworks and the needed skills will be introduced.
  1. Strengthen the already existing resources in the community through providing Behavioral Consultation.
  2. Develop psychological oriented programs to facilitate the successful resolution of Transitional situation.
  3. Develop Self Help Peer Consultation Groups according to their life roles.
  4. Develop Cosmic Self Concept
Register  now as this event takes place on Wednesday, March 4, 2020 from 9am to 4:30pm! Click here to check out the course description for more information.
