March 2020 - Northeastern District Update

Lynn Zakeri, Northeastern District Chair

Happy Social Work Month! I love that we can celebrate each other EXTRA this whole month as we welcome spring and so many great events coming up for NASW as well.

We will have an event on FRIDAY (3/6) at Curt’s again where we have been many times. We will follow our typical format: Network about a half-hour, and then have a one-hour presentation by one of my longest-known colleagues, Gary Hill, founder of North Shore Solutions. The training title is: The Loneliness Epidemic: How social media and today's parenting styles affect attachment and connection among our adolescents and young adults.

There are still a couple spots left if you want to register, but please make sure to register (or cancel if you registered and can’t make it) as Curt’s needs to plan our food needs, and we want to make sure all that want to come can get in.
