I'm fairly new to this forum and obviously this has long past. How do I find out if more workshops like this will become available? I'm a licensed clinical counselor in Minnesota and would love to earn some CEUs in the area of Alzheimer’s and dementia. I also have a husband with early onset Alzheimer's.
