Description

What does self-care look like when providing mental health and social services in the midst of COVID-19?

We are dealing with challenges that include, but are not limited to:

• providing face-to-face services remotely

• being an essential, front-lines worker

• simultaneously working and caring for a child/elder parent

• having our hours reduced.

Self-care can feel impossible but in reality, it is both a feasible and necessary practice to ensure our well-being. The better we care for ourselves the better we can care for our clients and communities.

Join CSSW in a peer supportive space to answer this question. Discussion will be facilitated by Julia Colangelo, LCSW. Together we will share challenges and resources to support self-care in the midst of a global crisis.
