Letter from Jack Hirose
Dear Colleagues,
The past few years have changed the landscape for how we learn and attend events. Zoom has been an invaluable tool for all of us, but the time has come to get back to the method that revitalizes the passion for our professions. Conferences allow for in person benefits such as, the chance to meet fellow clinicians and educators, exhibitors, on-site bookstore, group work and refreshments. We’ve removed the keynote but added even more presenters and a flexible format to create a custom learning experience of the highest calibre.
This year a total of 17 workshop sessions and 3 keynotes will be offered and will address a host of topics relevant to mental health, education, and any professional who applies behavioural science to practice. We invited 8 accomplished guest presenters who will share their knowledge and insights on a host of valuable mental health topics. Every session offered will focus on effective intervention strategies, recent advances and timely topics that will provide all professionals with the necessary knowledge and skills to better serve their clients and/or students.
Attendees have the option to attend either full-day or half-day sessions that will cover a diverse and broad range of important topics. For those who prefer to learn at home we will be streaming portions of the conference online. The Alberta Conference On: Fostering Emotional Well-Being & Bolstering Resilience in Children and Youth will be held in Calgary on December 4-6, 2023. Once again we are pleased to work closely and collaborate with our co-sponsors CTV, Sunshine Coast Health Centre and Georgia Straight Women’s Clinic. We hope to see you at our conference which promises to be another exceptional opportunity to not only enhance one’s knowledge and competencies, but to network with our colleagues.
Sincerely,
Jack Hirose
CEO & President
