Spring 2019: Dr. Joshua Lowinsky, CRG’s adolescent and adult psychiatrist, will once again teach his class on Psychopathology and Assessment this semester at Christian Theology Seminary.

CRG providers often participate by presenting guest lectures in their areas of specialty. This semester, CRG psychologist Dr. Anna Merrill will present a lecture entitled “Neurodevelopmental Disorders” on February 13th.
July 10, 2019: CRG’s Postsecondary Disability Specialist, Dr. David Parker, will return to Boston in July to present a preconference workshop at the annual conference of the Association on Higher Education and Disability (AHEAD). This conference targets Disability Services staff, faculty and administration who work at colleges and universities around the world. His workshop, “A Perfect Storm – How Campuses Are Responding to Undergraduates’ Mental Health Challenges,” is based on the 2016 book Dr. Parker co-edited, Becoming Self-Determined: Creating Thoughtful Learners in a Standards-Driven, Admissions-Frenzied Culture.
August 17, 2019: Dr. Tramaine Presley and Dr. Jillian Wise will co-present a talk entitled, “Understanding Childhood Mental Health to Promote Success at Home and School.” They will be presenting at the 2019 Resource and Adoptive Parent Training (RAPT) Conference. This event helps to educate and support parents who foster or adopt children as well as other professionals who work with this often at-risk population.
CRG’s Speaker’s Bureau helps schools, colleges, community agencies and other organizations learn more about children, teens, and adults with disabilities and/or behavioral health issues such as depression and anxiety. Most of our providers are available to give talks and/or conduct trainings on a wide range of topics. We work with you to customize a presentation that combines research-based knowledge with practical strategies and applications. As you plan your group’s professional development events for the year ahead, we invite you to contact Dr. David Parker to discuss your needs.
