This Friday I will be presenting at the first annual AAMFT-CA Student Conference at Alliant University in Los Angeles. The topic I will be tackling is titled Social Entrepreneurship & The MFT. I will be sharing my story of how I discovered this alternative career path available to MFT's who are interested in impacting families and communities in a multitude of alternative ways. A couple of the MFT's who are impacting communities in creative ways that I intend to highlight, include Dove Pressnall (top left) and her organization Survivors' Truths, and Courtney Olinger (bottom right) and her project Re Spectrum Community.
I will also share some ways to get started if you are interested in heading down this path, and will look to have conversations about the pitfalls and rewards of this particular approach. If you are interested in attending the info can be found HERE. I hope to see you!
