Annual Smart Marriages Conference Dr. Rita DeMaria will be presenting the following workshops at the 2008 conference.
"AWESOME, ASTONISHING PROGRESS IN PHILADELPHIA" Diane Sollee, MSW Founder & Director of Smart Marriages October 5, 2007 "Council for Relationships (CFR)...now offers a full compliment of marriage EDUCATION classes and training, making it THE largest and most comprehensive marriage EDUCATION institute in the country...The courses offered to couples and the trainings offered to instructors, include: PREP, PAIRS, Relationship Enhancement, PREPARE/ENRICH, How to Avoid Marrying a Jerk (Jerkette), and 7 Stages of Marriage, plus a wide range of sexuality, anger and stress management, and parenting education courses!! AND...'The Post-Graduate Training Program, accredited by AAMFT, will now ADD an advanced course in Contemporary Models of Couple and Family Therapy AND RELATIONSHIP EDUCATION, continuing its leadership in the advancement of educational programs for couples and families.' That is a big TAH DAH, a big step forward for Relationship EDUCATION. We have one determined person, Rita DeMaria to thank for all this. She's been on CFR staff for 7 years and has been plugging away, inch by inch till she's gone the full mile! In fact her new title is Director of Relationship Education - that they have a Relationship Education Director, speaks to CFR's amazing commitment to an Educational approach. The Council is ALSO an active member of the Greater Philadelphia Healthy Marriage Coalition that provides training and outreach to the Philadelphia community and has just been awarded a 3-year ACF grant from the Office of Community Services Training and Technical Assistance for Healthy Marriage. Again, it's DeMaria who is the mover and shaker and persistent hand behind this impressive Philadelphia Coalition - a true coalition in one of the largest and most diverse cities in the country. So, hats off to Rita DeMaria. She'll again be presenting and exhibiting in San Francisco where it's been her practice to offer free consultation to anyone who is trying to organize in their own community or work setting. Even if you don't need a consultation, drop by and shake her hand and thank her for what she's done for the advancement of the field." Site Map |
