Dean’s Address Dear Colleagues, On April 21, 2017, we will celebrate CPE’s 25 years of Answering the Call of Social Challenges through education and training. We will celebrate this milestone with a focus on the 12 Grand Challenges for Social Work issued by the American Academy of Social Work & Social Welfare. The Grand Challenges are a groundbreaking initiative to champion social progress powered by science. It’s a call to action for all of us to work together to tackle our nation’s toughest social problems. The conference will focus on the four challenges below.

• Smart Decarceration

• Close the Health Gap

• Build Financial Capability for All

• Harness Technology for Social Good

The Grand Challenges are already underway with able assists from the University of Maryland School of Social Work faculty and administration--which provides the organizational backbone for the Academy. The interest in the Grand Challenges is spreading fast as NASW has recently given special attention to the Grand Challenges in the Social Work journal and NASW News. CSWE will be organizing its next Annual Program Meeting around the Grand Challenges. They are broadly conceived and the leadership is forming networks that can address them via many directions: policy, research, teaching, and practice development and evaluation. We look forward to working with you on whatever aspect of the Grand Challenges might interest you. We are grateful to have been able to learn and grow with you over the last 25 years of CPE and look forward to many more. You have made us one of the largest and best CPE providers in the social work world. We appreciate all you do and want to make sure that we help you do it better each time we meet.

Sincerely,

Richard P. Barth, PhD Professor and Dean University of Maryland School of Social Work

✺La Familia Ethical Perspective Date: Friday, March 10, 2017 Time: 9:00 a.m. − 4:30 p.m. Location: Baltimore Cost: $150 CEUs: 6 (Ethics) Instructors: Adrian L. Delgado, LCSW, CEAP, CADC and Cheryl Aguilar, LGSW The La Familia Perspective challenges social workers to adhere to their Code of Ethics (COE) and Cultural Competency Standards (CCS) in social work practice. The La Familia Perspective provides a Pyramid Approach to cultural responsive social work practice. The Pyramid Approach is a guide for social workers who are committed to providing quality social work services to the Latino community. The Latino Social Work Organization (LSWO) recommends Cultural Competency Tools (CCT) to integrate into your cultural responsive social work practice. Many social work cultural competency trainings are limited to the frontline social worker. This workshop not only provides guidance for the direct service worker who provides cultural responsive services, but also challenges the agencies (public, nonprofit, private, etc.) to be more responsive to diverse populations in the State of Maryland. Therefore, this presentation provides guidance and opportunities for organizational leaders and administrators.

BECK Cognitive Behavior Therapy 3-Day Training on Depression and Anxiety:

is a three-day workshop that introduces the fundamental theory, structure, and techniques of cognitive-behavior therapy for depressive and anxiety disorders. Participants will learn to develop a cognitive-behavioral case conceptualization for clients, plan treatment based on a case conceptualization, establish and maintain an effective therapeutic alliance, and use effective cognitive and behavioral strategies to motivate clients to engage in the goals and tasks of therapy, modify their maladaptive thinking and behavioral patterns, and solve problems effectively. This workshop includes experiential exercises, video of specific strategies, and ample opportunity to practice skills in small groups.

UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND SCHOOL OF SOCIAL WORK

Faculty Feature Managing Adult Sibling Relationships Date: Friday, June 2, 2017 Time: 9:00 a.m. − 12:30 p.m. Place: UMSSW, Cost: $65 CEUs: 3 The bond siblings develop in childhood may be vastly different from the relationship that evolves in adulthood. Driven by affection but also characterized by ambivalence and ambiguity, adult sibling relationships can become hurtful, uncertain, competitive, or exhausting though the undercurrents of love and loyalty remain. An approach that recognizes the positive aspects of the changing sibling relationship, as well as those that need improvement, can restore healthy ties and rebuild family closeness. Based on survey data and in-depth case studies of more than 260 siblings over the age of forty (as described in the presenters’ 2016 book Adult Sibling Relationships), this workshop offers vital direction for traversing the emotional terrain of adult sibling relations. It will discuss family therapy theories and pursue a richer understanding of ambivalence, a normal though little explored feeling among siblings, and how ambiguity about the past or present can lead to miscommunication and estrangement. The workshop will focus on the most confounding elements of sibling relationships, such as emotional cut-offs, and provide specific suggestions for realizing new, productive avenues of friendship in middle and later life–skills that may be particularly important for siblings who must cooperate to care for aging parents or give immediate emotional or financial support to other siblings or family members. Dr. Geoffrey L. Greif is a professor at the University of Maryland School of Social Work and has been teaching and practicing family, group, and individual therapy for more than forty years. He has written numerous articles and books including, most recently, Buddy System: Understanding Male Friendships and Two Plus Two: Couples and their Couple Friendships. His research has been cited in major news outlets throughout the world. Dr. Michael E. Woolley is an associate professor at the University of Maryland School of Social Work and Director of Research at the Maryland Longitudinal Data System Center. A lifelong practitioner, he is a research fellow of the Society of Social Work and Research and has published dozens of articles and book chapters on both practice with children and families and educational issues.

Yet, it often is misunderstood, both conceptually and in terms of application and technique. This workshop will clarify what empathy is (and isn’t), how to achieve a deep empathic connection, and the two distinct modes of verbally empathizing: the conventional “You” mode and the more specialized “Identification” mode. It will also demonstrate special applications of empathy to deepen the therapeutic process with couples and families. Participants will have the opportunity to practice the specialized Identification mode of empathy. This workshop is designed for both beginning and seasoned clinicians. Thursday, March 9, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Baltimore, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: Robert F. Scuka, PhD, MSW, LCSW-C

✺202 *NEW* Loving Contracts: Tools to Empower Families and Help Them

Communicate *HALF DAY*: Love and contracts are more complementary than most people realize. Over the course of a lifespan family hotspots are navigated through agreements as big as who is a parent -- from helping with homework and discipline to doctor bills -- and as small as who cleans the dishes. Using examples from reproductive technologies, adoption, living together and marriage, participants will learn how loving agreements can empower families to resolve conflicts and share more fairly in family and economic life. The presentation, based on her book Love’s Promises: How Formal & Informal Contracts Shape All Kinds of Families (Beacon Press 2015), mixes a moving and oftenirreverent memoir of her own journey to motherhood with legal analysis about how all kinds of families benefit from both contracts and more informal deals. Friday, March 24, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m., Baltimore, $65, CEUs: 3, Instructor: Martha Ertman, JD 203 Play Therapy: Is it Really Just for Children: Attendees will learn some strategies for incorporating play therapy into sessions with adults.

UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND SCHOOL OF SOCIAL WORK

204HC *NEW* Machismo: Exploring Fact, Fiction, Culture, Mental Health and Treatment Modalities: This workshop will discuss and explore the concept of “machismo” from a clinical and systems perspective. An emphasis will be placed on the word origin, cultural elements, mental health and various treatment modalities. The workshop will provide participants with a general understanding of “machismo” and how to utilize it in a clinical setting to achieve optimal results. A comparison between Western and Eastern cultures will be discussed. This course will explore what is fact and what is fiction. Wednesday, April 12, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Howard County, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: Veronica Cruz, LCSW-C

✺205DC *NEW* HIV/AIDS Prevention, Treatment and Care: Cutting Edge

Information and Implications for Social Work: Social workers have very important roles in HIV prevention, treatment and care. In this highly interactive workshop, participants will explore key elements of the HIV Continuum of Care and their roles as members of an interdisciplinary team. Participants will also sharpen their counseling and interviewing skills through practice as well as exploring relevant ethical issues. Case studies will be introduced and discussed throughout the workshop along with other interactive activities to enhance the learning and practice experience. Wednesday, May 3, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., District of Columbia, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: Edna Brown, MPH 206 *NEW* Living and Dying by the Numbers: The Role of Health Disparities in Individual and Community Outcomes: The concept of health disparities has increasingly gained national attention. For the past several decades, elimination of health disparities has remained on the national agenda. Despite its positioning as a national priority, we, as a society, have continued to fail in improving health outcomes and extending equity across populations. This training aims to address how health disparities persist as a result of practice habits, structural barriers related to access, and powerful environmental factors that instigate individual and community-based stress. The training also aims to examine the persistence of health disparities post-implementation of the Affordable Care Act. While great efforts have been made in extending coverage and improving access, there still are innumerable unintended policy-related consequences prompted by the need to reduce healthcare costs that may potentially exacerbate pre-existing health disparities. As social workers, we are fundamentally called to understand the human condition in context. This training ultimately emphasizes the professional need to understand how complex that context has become – especially when we consider the role of this context on health and health outcomes. Friday, May, 5, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Baltimore, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: Susan Westgate, MBA, LCSW-C 207SG Relationship Enhancement (RE) Therapy for Couples and Families: RE Therapy combines a psychoeducational skills-training approach with deep emotional processing designed to transform couples and families’ negative patterns of interaction into positive, nurturing ones so as to facilitate deepened emotional connection and healing in ruptured relationships. The core RE skills focus on how to manage conflict effectively and how to dialogue in order to uncover clients’ most vital feelings, concerns and desires. This, in turn, empowers even the most distressed couples/families to resolve current and future problems on their own. An additional strength of RE Therapy is that it equalizes power within relationships, both between genders and across generations. RE Therapy is supported by 40 years of research that validates its clinical effectiveness. This workshop will introduce the theory and practice of RE therapy and demonstrate how the RE therapy process is used in clinical practice via videotaped therapy sessions, live demonstrations and experiential sessions. Wednesday, May 10, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Shady Grove, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: Robert F. Scuka, PhD, MSW, LCSW-C Register for workshops online at www.ssw.umaryland.edu/cpe | 13

✺208 *NEW* Problem Solving Courts and Therapeutic Justice: Problem- solving

courts and other diversion programs are grounded in therapeutic justice, which attends to the impact of legal settings on mental health and well-being. Widely supported by the judiciary and the federal government as efficacious and ethical alternatives to traditional criminal justice responses, diversion programs have increased in popularity since the 1990s, with nearly 3,000 such courts across the country at last count. While the majority is drug courts, these also include mental health, veterans, prostitution and domestic violence courts. Social workers play crucial roles in these programs. They provide mandated services and are often key players in their design and implementation. The incorporation of rehabilitative services, behavioral health interventions, and case management within the criminal justice system presents both opportunities and challenges for social workers. This session will provide background information on how problem-solving courts and other diversion programs examine the different roles available for social workers and provide strategies on how to identify and manage professional ethical dilemmas. Wednesday, May 24, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Baltimore, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: Corey Shdaimah, LL.M., PhD

✺209HC Crossing the Border: Enhancing Relationships Through Cultural

Competence: The changing demographics and economics of our growing multicultural world and the long-standing disparities in the health status of people from culturally diverse backgrounds have challenged youth service providers. With the increasing diversity of the U.S. population, mental health service providers must be aware of the influences that culture has on psychological processes, mental illnesses, family dynamics, and the ways that people seek help. They must also be aware of the variety within groups. In an effort to address this issue, this interactive workshop will explore the dynamics of cultural diversity, including cross-cultural communication and encounters. It will include strategies for creating safe spaces to address growing diversity, persistent disparities, and to promote health and mental health equity. In addition, this workshop will increase knowledge and skill sets as well as strengthen the ability to respond to the needs, beliefs, behaviors, perceptions, and preferences of the diverse communities served. Thursday, June 1, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Howard County, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: LaMarr D.

506 *NEW* Improving Access to Social Work and Mental Health Services Through Ethical Community Engagement and Marketing: Access to social work and mental health services is a critical issue. How social workers and mental health organizations connect with their community and consumers, and advertise and publicize their services is important. Too often, social workers are faced with two problems: 1) There are not enough services and 2) Clients are not aware of existing services or how to access them. This seminar will discuss and explore ethical considerations of community engagement and marketing of social work and mental health services to the public.

700 PROFESSIONAL GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT

✺700SG *NEW* The Art of Coaching Up and Receiving Feedback: We all need

feedback so we can learn and grow. When feedback conversations are poorly delivered, however, they can destroy trust. How can we make feedback conversations more productive from the role of receiver? We will also look at specific skill sets in coaching up to leaders. Interactive behavioral scenarios enacted by professional role players will keep the class interactive and informative. Wednesday, February 22, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Shady Grove, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: Marsha Stein, LCSW-C 701SG *NEW* The Language of Leadership: The way leaders communicate a message can be as important as the message itself. Effective leaders know how to design their messages in a way that ensures others will listen. This class will teach specific characteristics of the language of leadership. Participants will learn how to craft their communication so that their message will resonate with others. Thursday, April 27, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Shady Grove, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: Marsha Stein, LCSW-C

✺702SG Non Defensive Communications for Human Service Professionals:

How to Deal with Difficult Clients and Situations: Do you ever feel defensive, frustrated or helpless when dealing with difficult clients or situations? Learning how to respond to people who may attack, blame, withdraw, or sabotage is a necessary skill to communicate non-defensively. Developing skills to communicate clearly without engaging in power struggles is necessary for both your professional and personal life. Thursday, June 8, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Shady Grove, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructor: Jennifer Alfonso, LCSW-C 703 *NEW* Dismantling Racism: What Therapists Need to Know: What is the therapist’s role and responsibility in recognizing and dissolving racism? What inner work is required to know, own, and confront personal bias? We all have blind spots. How do yours get in your way when working with clients different from you? In this didactic and experiential workshop, participants will examine the mechanism that maintains racism in the U.S. by reviewing our racialized history, exploring personal and structural privilege and bias, and locating where we each are in identity development using racial identity models. Through this exploration, therapists can increase awareness of unconscious bias that contributes to systemic racial dominance and oppression. Friday, June 16, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Baltimore, $125, CEUs: 6, Instructors: Gil Bliss, LCSW-C and Cathy Roberts, LCPC 704 Next Level Practice: Moving from Employee to Entrepreneur: The Private Practice Bootcamp is designed to prepare participants to build a private practice that is perfect for them!

705SG *NEW* Recognizing and Responding to Suicide Risk: Essential Skills for Clinicians: With 90% of suicide deaths linked to an untreated or under-treated mental health condition, it is imperative that every clinician be able to identify accurately chronic and acute risk factors for suicide, reasonably formulate the level of risk, and work with confidence to create and implement an effective treatment plan. Professional training programs rarely teach the skills necessary to recognize and adequately treat clients at risk for suicide. Few clinicians have time to keep up with the latest literature on indicators for suicide risk and effective management of care. This two-day advanced interactive, knowledge-and-skills training workshop will offer clinicians results of more than 40 years expertise in translating research into clinical practice in this state-of-the-art, state-of-the-science training program. It is based on 24 established core competencies required for effective clinical assessment and management of individuals at risk for suicide. This workshop includes a web-based assessment and updated manuals with resource materials. The American Association of Suicidology is the developer of the RRSR Curriculum. Thursday – Friday, July 27–28, 2017, 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Shady Grove, $350, CEUs: 12, Instructor: American Association of Suicidology 706 *NEW* Building Trust Inside Your Team: Individual beliefs, perceptions and workplace behaviors, both explicit and implicit, influence the development of organizational culture. While cycles of mistrust, once ignited, build on themselves, conflict can actually be an opportunity for growth. Interactive behavioral scenarios enacted by professional role players will keep the class interactive and informative.

Participants will gain a better understanding of the role, function, and characteristics of an effective supervisor and will also learn the basics of personnel management. This workshop is designed for human service workers with fewer than two years of supervisory experience or individuals wanting to enhance their supervisory knowledge and skills. Friday – Saturday, February 24–25, 2017, 9:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Baltimore, $250, CEUs: 12, Instructor: Pamela Love Manning, PhD 2001 Transition Strategies for New Supervisors: Most human service managers are promoted from within an organization because they have been effective in their clinical social work positions. It is generally assumed that if a person is a “good social worker,” he or she will be an effective manager. But being a manager or supervisor demands a new type of knowledge and requisite skills. Having oversight for the coordination of people and tasks means that success depends directly on the ability to achieve results through others. This introductory workshop is designed to help new managers establish their foundation for success.
