Moral Injury in Social Services

Presenter: Michelle D. Seymore

In this session, we will explore the damage inflicted on one’s conscience when one perpetrates, witnesses, or fails to prevent acts that transgress their moral compass.  We will examine the intersection of our work and the lives of the individuals and families we serve.  This is a recorded webinar from April 10, 2023.
