Sharon Kiehl, RN, completed Group (basic) and Grief training at a recent CISM event in Colorado. Sharon is interested in helping to form a DeKalb county CISM team. She is already in touch with local public safety folk there.

Welcome!

Thanks for visiting.

We invite you to take part in an international conversation about CISM, your experiences, your observations, your questions.

This site went up the day we completed four days of training with three terrific ICISF faculty:
Jim Nelms, Tom Webb, and Pete Volkmann. They have received invitations to check in from time to time and it is honor of their decades of investment into the service of those-who-serve-first that this blog is dedicated.

Buchanan County CISM team has a tentative next meeting date of July 31, 2007, Red Cross Building.

We'd like to also consider hosting a Midwest meeting for all CISM-trained folk on August 14. Time and place will depend on who wants to be there. Our primary agenda is to get to know each other, talk about our hopes pertaining to CISM, and devise a means for staying supportive while we grow a state-wide CISM network by 2009.

Anyone can respond to this post. If you want posting privileges, please indicate in your response. It only takes a minute to get you set up to do that and we welcome every participant to do that.
