Greetings!

Western Pennsylvania Reconciling Ministries is very pleased to announce an exciting seminar to help families, church leaders, and caregivers enhance the acceptance, health and well-being of LGBT youth. This topic is an incredibly important one these days! 

Please read the attached brochure and share it with all who may be interested in attending this seminar which will be led by Caitlin Ryan of the Family Acceptance Project.

We are encouraging parents, youth workers, health and mental health workers, clergy, educators, and family service agency personnel to consider attending this seminar. 

The seminar will be presented in the Pittsburgh, PA area on February 24th and at Allegheny College in Meadville, PA on February 25th.Specifics, including steps to register, are included in the attached brochure.

This seminar is the fifth in a series of educational programs offered by WPA Reconciling Ministries over the last five years. Previous events have featured presentations by Dr. Joretta Marshall, Bishop Grant Hagiya, Dr.Steve Tuell, Dr. Pamela Leightsy, and Dr. Delman Coates. 

Please note: This program is offered for 6 hours of social work continuing education through co-sponsorship of the University of Pittsburgh’s School of Social Work, a Council on Social Work Education accredited school and, therefore, a PA pre-approved provider of social work continuing education. These credit hours satisfy requirements for LSW/LCSW, LPC and LMFT biennial license renewal. For information on social work continuing education call (412) 624-3711.

If you have any questions regarding this event, please contact any member of the WPA Reconciling Ministries Core Team.

Shalom!
