 Healing Families & Communities After Tragedy
Dear Families and Friends, It's just one week away from VOICES April 3 Resiliency Symposium, which promises to be an informative day of presentations and interactive educational experiences. Once again, we are honored to have a distinguished group of professionals with expertise in the fields of psychology, research, occupational health, and medicine. Throughout the planning process for this year's event, we've had the opportunity to learn more about our presenters' work. We are impressed by their dedication to helping families and communities, and their focus on promoting hope and healing in the lives of those they work with. Opportunities like the VOICES Symposium provide us with the chance to come together as a community, and to share our lessons learned with those providing services to victims' families, responders and survivors. It is heartwarming to reconnect with people we've known for many years, and to meet new people for the first time. If you are interested in attending but have not registered, we ask that you make a reservation by end of day on Monday, March 30. We hope you'll join us on April 3 and have included the agenda and a link to register below. As always, if you have any questions, feel free to contact us at (203) 966-3911. Warm regards,
 Mary Fetchet & the VOICES Staff _______________________________________________________________________ VOICES Center of Excellence
