The 2006
DBSA Chapter Leadership Forums (CLF) are one-day grassroots training institutes
taking place the Fridays before each DBSA conference.
CLF is a
fun-filled learning experience for DBSA chapter leaders with all new topics this
year, including: facilitator training, crisis preparedness for support groups,
growing your chapter, advocacy and more!
Whether
you are a seasoned chapter participant or new to DBSA chapters, use this
opportunity to network with others from around the US.
Who’s
invited? DBSA chapter leaders (max. 5
per chapter for free) and other individuals driven to make a difference in their
communities in the effort to improve the lives of people living with mood
disorders are invited to register.
When
are the CLF programs? The Chapter
Leadership Forums will take place the Fridays before the DBSA conferences from
8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. This is a
