2008 Oregon Training Series on Direct Support The Oregon DD Coalition is pleased to announce the 2008 Oregon Trainings Series on Direct Supports, which will be hosted by the DD Coalition with funds from the Oregon Department of Human Services, Seniors & People with Disabilities Division. This series of trainings will be targeted to direct support providers and related professionals who support individuals with developmental disabilities. The purpose of the series is to motivate, instruct, network, problem-solve and share best practice. The training series will replace the Oregon Conference on Direct Supports held in Corvallis the past three summers. The change of format is intended to increase the coalition's capacity to train many more individuals than is possible through a single annual conference. The series will deliver six four-hour teleconferences to a network of host sites throughout the state for the benefit of direct support providers. In addition to featuring nationally-recognized speakers, each remote site will also have a facilitator/site sponsor who will lead the local group in structured activities and discussions. More details to follow soon. The 2008 Oregon Training Series on Direct Supports has undergone a change this year. We invite you to attend training series that is focused around providing supports in ways that not only enhance the lives of the people you are working for, but also enhance your own life. When a direct support provider is secure, skilled, and happy, support is more successful. Our goal is to help you achieve this condition. Throughout this training series, we will provide focused sessions around topics such as specific disabilities and related best practices, time-saving and enjoyable paths to healthy lives, and how to access resources in the community, and much, much more.
