GPS SUPERVISOR TRAINING PROGRAM

GPS SUPERVISOR TRAINING PROGRAM

“The GPS Group Model is the best group model that I have encountered; a beautiful model for supporting the ones that need it the most.”

This training is for anyone in a supervisor role supporting staff to run GPS groups. Learn more about GPS's trauma-informed, evidence-based group approach, how to support your team, how this group approach is different from other group models that your team may be implementing, and how to integrate GPS into the heart of the services that your program offers.

Note: This training is appropriate for those in supervisory roles who are unfamiliar with GPS as well as those who have attended GPS trainings in the past.

If you are registering as a BSAS -funded provider, you must first be approved. Please apply here.

WHAT PROFESSIONALS ARE SAYING:

“This is an opportunity for support, guidance with a true human approach."

"It is a great introduction to the model and gives you a look at what the GPS framework is all about."

"Offering structured groups for individuals without group facilitation experience."

"I think most people running groups feel as though they wish there was more support, more structure, more guidance - people want to feel competent and capable in this work, and there are far too few resources for group support. Iwould talk to them about GPS as a way to address all of those concerns they might have."
