Next week the National Sexual Assault Conference will be going on in Los Angeles. Sadly, I won’t be there this time (I’ll be with the Navy in Newport), but I’ll be able to catch up on all of the fantastic things happening there, because CALCASA’s going to be tweeting updates in real time (as will [...]

Weekly Wrap-Up

It’s been an amazing week here in DC, as we have just finished up the inaugural offering of our National Institute for the Prosecution of Domestic Violence II, which took our first DV course to an entirely new level.

It’s been a busy week, and for me, the only one I’ll have this month in the 216. I’m off tomorrow for 2 weeks in DC, which if we’re being honest, is also now home (and that’s complicated, because I can never remember what articles of clothing live where these days). Before I pack up [...]

Apologies for missing a post yesterday, but I had a busted router, and therefore, no internet connection. Had I been up and running, I would have brought you this video clip [after the jump], which I find pretty disturbing.

I’m so happy to be able to return with a wrap up from the sustainability site. Feels like it’s been too long, but with all the travel, it sometimes gets the short straw. Aside from a brief mention of our current giveaway, this week also featured: *Some available online courses on leadership excellence (complete with [...]

Lots of focus on training this week over at the sustainability site this week: *A sampling of some of the excellent training events and conferences coming up in the next two months. March and April are always packed, and this year’s no exception. If you have money to spend on live events, there’s plenty to [...]

A few really interesting posts over at the sustainability site this week. Both gave me some things to seriously consider: *Managing up, or the art of positioning people to effect positive change *What do we teach the future nurse?
