The Texas Society for Clinical Social Work was founded thirty years ago to address the “in the trenches” needs and concerns of social workers in clinical practice in agencies, hospitals, and/or private practice. The Texas Society for Clinical Social Work strives to promote excellence in clinical social work practice, and maintain the identity of clinical social work as a distinct profession within the mental health field. The practice of clinical social work is rooted in the basic values of the social work profession that includes a commitment to the dignity, well-being, and self-determination of the individual.

TSCSW Presents
The Annual Fall Conference
at Becker Vineyards and Lavender Farm
in the Hill Country near
Fredericksburg, Texas
September 14 & 15, 2007

Featuring Eve Mayer, Ph.D
Special Horizons:
The Baby Boomers and their Parents
and
The Baby Boomers and their Children

Dr. Mayer will explore the relationship dynamics of Baby Boomers with their parents "which are different from previous relationships because "the quiet dogma" of the last generation hopefully has been substituted by confrontations and communication"; while "the children of the Baby Boomers seem, to many mental health professionals, to be a new breed often lacking in limits and goals. They don't plan for the future or set goals as much as they want to enjoy the present".

The conference will provide 10 CEUs and run from 1 PM to 5 PM on Friday. On Saturday, it runs from 9 AM to noon, and then from 1:30 to 4:30 PM. Included is the Friday evening dinner party at 6:30 PM at Hannah's on Main street in Fredericksburg, with optional wine tasting at 5 PM; and Saturday lunch.
