<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I have some good news. I recently applied for and received approval to give 14 hours of continuing education credit to persons who need credit from the Addictions Counselor Certification Board of Oregon who
complete an ASIST workshop. These include persons involved in the fields of Addiction Counseling, Prevention, Addictions Treatment Clinical Supervision, and Gambling.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">ACCBO was gracious enough to extend this approval broadly to the ASIST workshop in Oregon under specific conditions:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Participants must be given a certificate of completion at the end of the workshop (our standard Certificate will do; just make sure it says 14 hours, which is typical).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">So, one more opportunity to extend our reach to those who serve Individuals at elevated risk of suicide. Thanks ACCBO!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
