Every Hour Counts’ Post

Had the privilege of co-hosting a Zoom session with Stanley Greene of PowerThinking Corp in Philadelphia. I shared my personal journey of overcoming trauma, from transitioning from an Air Force military BRAT to a Navy Petty Officer during DESERT STORM. Despite facing challenges, I embraced resilience and faced the trauma of my past. Reflecting on the impact of Roe vs. Wade, I discussed the feeling of learned helplessness many young women may face. Emotional regulation and diversity of thoughts are crucial, especially in leadership roles. Let's equip ourselves with positive psychology tools and take educated risks in a global economy perspective. Thank you to all who engage in these important discussions. Let's continue to foster resilience and growth mindset in our communities.

Join Us for an Important Zoom Session on the Bosnian Genocide The University of Oklahoma Anne and Henry Zarrow School of Social Work invites you to an impactful session led by Dr. Venera Bekteshi and Dr. Ann Petrila, Associate Professors from OU and the University of Denver, respectively. The event will take place on October 5th at 9:00 a.m. Central Time. Dr. Ann Petrila will share her expertise on the Bosnian Genocide, a devastating event in the 1990s that resulted in the tragic loss of over 8,000 Bosniak men and boys. This session is a critical opportunity to delve into the complexities of ethnic conflict, human rights violations, and their lasting impact on communities worldwide. For social workers, this is more than just history—it’s a chance to gain a deeper understanding of global issues and enhance our ability to serve diverse populations who may be dealing with the trauma of displacement, violence, and systemic oppression. This session will deepen our cultural competence and strengthen our practice, making it a must-attend for students, professionals, and anyone interested in human rights.

If you know you'll be planning virtual events for a community at any point and want to learn from some of the best designers/facilitators of inclusive programming, check out the Center for Scientific Collaboration and Community Engagement! One of the reasons I feel confident in offering virtual and hybrid event planning support to organizations is because of what I've learned from the CSCCE team and the work I was able to do collaboratively with members of that community (in particular, the resource we created focused on accessibility https://lnkd.in/eitFQJKj). This tip sheet is one of numerous free resources they have created. Check out their three upcoming workshops (and they've even got a sale right now, buy 2 workshops, get one free!) Session 1: Making a PACT for engaging virtual meetings and events Session 2: Designing for effective decision-making during virtual meetings Session 3: Selecting supplementary tools for virtual meetings and events And no, I'm not paid to promote this, I just deeply believe in the quality of the work that they're doing. Link to the registration page and descriptions of the three sessions is in the comments. #Accessibility #A11y #Community ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 👋 Hi! I'm Sara Kobilka, Renaissance Woman!

Have you ever considered using Family Group Conferencing to plan care and support? Instead of "doing to" a person, this approach puts the person at the heart of planning their care, with the support of the people in their life who know and love them. Learn from Sean who uses this approach in adult social care https://lnkd.in/eywgQEMg #SocialCare #FamilyGroupConferencing
