Illness Management and Recovery (IMR) is an evidence-based practice (EBP) designed to help people diagnosed with mental illness learn new skills and knowledge to help manage their symptoms and stressors.  You've likely heard people talking about it, or seen the big binder in your office.  It's possible you've even looked into the binder and thought "Geez, there's a lot of good stuff in here, but no way is Joe working on this binder with me.  It looks boring!"  Come to this training, then - we'll explore the wonderful, 11 chapter world of IMR and we'll learn how to make the material come alive for your clients!

Objectives:

1. Participants will learn to assist clients in defining and setting recovery goals, understand how to help clients learn and practice skills, and how to structure sessions with clients
2. Participants will have a basic understanding of how to apply this practice in groups
3. Participants will receive a review of the IMR Modules
