SUMMARY:FREE Webinar - Stress First Aid
DESCRIPTION:November 4th 10am-12pm \nIAC is pleased to offer our members a free training on Stress First Aid presented by the Support Trauma Recovery for Youth with Developmental Disabilities (STRYDD) Center at Northwell Health.  This program is provided via our colleagues at AABR through a grant they received from SAMHSA. \nThis is a free training\, but registration is required.  Once you register you will receive the link to join the meeting.  https://iacny-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUpcuygrjgjG9EwzUQgP4CVWyIgOtFMPs2v \nWhy Stress First Aid? \nThose working in our field face stress from various sources\, including exposure to trauma\, witnessing loss\, making tough decisions\, and the pressure to positively impact the lives of individuals supported. Additionally\, personal challenges and family stressors can complicate their situation\, leading to a constant juggling of competing demands. \nStress First Aid (SFA) provides a framework of practical actions designed to reduce the risk of stress reactions escalating into more severe or long-term issues. The Stress First Aid Model is a self-care\, leadership\, and peer support approach tailored for high-risk professions such as the military\, fire and rescue\, and healthcare. This training highlights seven essential actions to help you identify and address early signs of stress in yourself and those around you. \nThis program is presented by George Wurzer\, LCSW and Julio C. González Martínez of the STRYDD Center at Northwell Health. \nGeorge Wurzer\, LCSW is a licensed clinical social worker since 1994.  He currently serves as the Program Manager for the STRYDD Center at Long Island Jewish Medical Center of Northwell Health.  Prior to his appointment with the STRYDD Center he served as the Director of Children’s Services with the Mental Health Association of Nassau County for 28 years. Mr. Wurzer consults to local school districts for children with ASD and has presented to both schools and clinics on best practices for children on the spectrum. \nJulio C. González Martínez is Associate Professor and Chairperson of the Exceptional Education and Learning Department in the School of Education at the State University of New York at Old Westbury.  He serves as Lead Education Specialist for the STRYDD Center (Supporting Trauma Resilience in Youth with Developmental Disabilities) at Long Island Jewish Hospital and Northwell Health.  Dr. González has a clinical practice in eastern Long Island where he works primarily with immigrant children with special needs and their families. \n
