While the U.S. is seeing increased attention paid to the mental health, substance abuse, and suicide issues within the military and veteran communities, there is also increased concern about our nation's capacity to provide the services needed. More and more veterans are obtaining mental health care in the civilian sector, but frequently community clinicians have a limited understanding of military and veteran culture. To assist in developing a therapeutic rapport with veterans and service members, trainer Chris Morse LICSW, MVF-ASW, has drawn on his own military and clinical experience to develop this webinar. Chris will provide clinicians with an overview of military culture, norms, and mores and explore how military life and the combat environment may shape the presentation of the client throughout treatment. This webinar will: Provide a brief overview of military culture and cultural components Examine how military service may later affect a veteran's future interactions Identify aspects of military culture that may influence the presentation of the client

This event will include remarks and admissions overview by the Assistant Dean of Admissions, an interactive walking tour of campus, and an audience-driven Q+A panel.
