There are many training opportunities available. The Critical Stress Management
program has become the standard of care for those that suffer
from traumatic loss or incidents. We are excited to announce that
the State of Alaska is on board and is now listing all the CISM
training on their web page
www.hss.state.ak.us/dmhdd. In addition, they are only
listing CISM Teams that hold to the ICISF standards; that is to
say, they agree that all their members have at the very least
the ICISF, Basic CISM and will indicate those CISM Teams that
have their Team listed with ICISF. This is good news because it
helps address the question, “What qualifies you to work in the
field of Traumatic Stress?” Check out their page as well as
www.icisf.org for more
information on when APCM and others are providing training.
If you would like CISM training in your area, email,
staff@apcm.org and indicate
your needs and dates considering.
APFCM provides training for local
ministers, counselors, and lay ministers that are interested in
being trained in crisis intervention techniques. The
Municipality of Anchorage has seen the benefit of training this
group to tap the recourses of the faith community. The training
is the ICISF Pastoral Crisis Intervention course. Course
description and dates are found at
www.icisf.org Contact
the staff@apcm.org for a
contact email if you would like this training and information on
the disaster plan for your area.
