CAC's 2nd Annual Symposium
​
​​​​​On May 15, 2025, CAC is hosting The Resilient Self: A Wellness Symposium for Helping Professionals. We know firsthand the incredible challenges facing our colleagues in mental health and social service, as well as first responders. The feedback from our first symposium revealed how much we need to come together to encourage and support each other. We're all in this together!
​
So bring yourself (or your whole team) for a day of inspired learning and self-care! Our keynote speaker is Amy Morgan, MSC, CWPS, CFRC(D), CMHA, CCPA. Amy is the CEO/Founder of Center of Training and a sought-after speaker on mental health for social service providers and first responders.​
​​
New for 2025, there will be four breakouts in the morning that will repeat in the afternoon. Participants can choose any two of the four sessions, but please note that ​​​​CEUs are offered for LCSW, LSW, LCPC, LPC and ISBE social workers for keynote and all breakouts. However,
ILETSB credits are only approved for the keynote and the breakouts by Amy Morgan, Dr. Rebecca Hubbard and Ken Tworek.
​
​Early bird registration is $25/person*, which includes in-person sessions, breakfast, lunch and 3 CEUs. A networking area will also be available. Groups registering 3 or more people together pay $20/person.
Event t-shirts are available for $25, adult sizes S-3XL in sage. (Back is shown below. Front has a small CAC logo with the event title and date below the logo on the upper left chest pocket area - no actual pocket.)
​
*$25 reflects Early Bird pricing.
After May 1, tickets will be $30/person.
​
Sponsorships are available starting at $250.
