The Barnabas Center distributed certificates to about forty people who attended the training on crisis counseling on Trama, Crisis and Grief. This 3-day training held on February 5, 6 and 7, 2009 at Hotel Le Plaza (Port-au-Prince) was well appreciated by the participants both for the content of the sessions and for the general organization of the seminar. The trainers were two American specialists: Dr. Daniel Green, PhD, is a licensed psychologist and the Clinical Director of New Life Resources, Inc. in Waukesha, Wisconsin, and Visiting Professor at Charles University of Prague (Czech Republic); Rev. Robin Knoll is president of Inspiration Ministries and serves as Chaplain with the City of Waukesha, Wisconsin Police Department, concentrating on Crisis Response work and Pastoral Care.
The participants at the training came from 4 provinces in Haiti. They are committed to be available to their communities to intervene according to the new knowledge acquired at this seminar organized by the Barnabas Center. In his closing remarks, Prof Edner JEANTY, Executive Director of the Center, thanked the participants and announced that the audio CD of the sessions will be available soon. To order the CD (mp3 format), contact the BCLC office at infobarnabas@gmail.com.

Wow, this is fantastic. That is exactly what Haitian leaders need these days. They will be able to help their friends and church members. I will help spread the word about the crisis and grief counseling.
