From Risk to Resilience – Module 1: Fundamentals I

Accompanying people in need of assistance who also develop or have developed a mental illness is a great challenge. It is often difficult to even determine that, in addition to a cognitive impairment, there is also a mental disorder, or that a child with an mental disorder also has a cognitive impairment.

Professional support requires specialist competencies and special relationship skills. A new open training concept in anthroposophical social care aims to sensitize and qualify professionals accordingly.

This is the first of eight modules. Information on the further dates of the series can be found on the website of the Akademie AnthropoSozial (see below).
