San Luis Obispo Unit Report

By L. Jeannette Davis

The San Luis Obispo unit’s monthly meeting will be held on Thursday, June 26, 2014. Sara Tindula, MSW, ASW and Megan Jenkins, MSW, ASW, will give an hour presentation [1 CEU] titled, “Beyond the Bench: Family Treatment Court in San Luis Obispo County.”

Tindula is the DSS Child Welfare Services Family Treatment Court coordinator and Jenkins is the County Drug and Alcohol Family Treatment Court coordinator. They bring to their presentation a wealth of information and experience that will certainly add to our understanding of the SLO Family Treatment Court.  

The unit meeting begins at 5:30 pm with networking, socialization and light snacks. The program begins at 6:15pm. To find the place where we hold our meetings, please contact Ly-Lan Lofgren at lylanlofgren@gmail.com

Mark your calendars for the following Thursdays: September 25, October 23, and December 4. We do not meet in July or August. We hope each of you have a refreshing and happy summer!

Just a note: At our April SLO Unit meeting three social workers shared that, because of the networking component of our meetings, they had found jobs through contacts made at our meetings. Come and find out for yourselves.
