This training is not only for people who are thinking about starting a practice, but also for those who have an existing practice. It's never too late to make some adjustments to your practice that will help it grow more effectively. This training relates to direct practice as it aims to help the clinician build a practice that will benefit the clients it serves and ensure their practice adheres to the strictest of ethical principles. Participants will learn how to build a private practice that meet the needs of the clients they serve and strengthens both the client's treatment experience and the profession as a whole. This training is split into 3 consecutive Tuesday webinars. Participants must attend all 3 sessions to earn CECs. DAY 3 begins with a discussion of how to market your business, where you should focus and what you should ignore. We then round out the series by exploring how to develop your practice, how to effectively close your practice, and how to troubleshoot your practice when it isn't growing as you would like it to grow.

Presenter: Olin Green Title: "The Hidden Dimensions of Road Safety: Exploring Spatial Inequities Affecting Latino and African American Communities in Florida" Description of talk: This presentation examines the factors related to driver behavior that contribute to the unequal distribution of safety critical events, namely crashes and near-crashes, in underserved communities. It also identifies the types of areas that experience disproportionately more crashes and near-crashes, and their characteristics. By enhancing our understanding of how driver behavior and location-specific factors intersect, this analysis hopes to inform policy proposals and research that aim to alleviate the burden placed on marginalized communities by an unsafe transportation landscape.Student Biography: Olin Green is a PhD candidate in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UConn, and he is enrolled in the Graduate Certificate in Human Rights program.
