Hello Group:
My name is Renee. I have written to this list serve several times over
the past few months.
I am about to complete a 60 credit Masters (CMHC), from Argosy
University, Salt Lake City Campus. My difficulty is that I must do
1000 hours of clinical time. Well, at least 600 hours of direct
clinical work with the other 400 being added for other duties. I
believe.
It was suggested to me that I attempt to locate a Federal or State
program which would, perhaps, offer clinicians, or agencies insentives
to hire me. You know, grants, pay, tax insentives, back to work
programs through Social Security. etc. My question: Does anyone know
of any State or Government or private programs which could help me be
more promotable?
I kind of feel odd asking, because in a perfect world I would be hired
on my own recognisence.
I have been even contemplating to contact my Senitors, and (silly
enough) perhaps the White House. Asking about programs available for
minorities, disability, older women going back to the work force.
Any suggestions would help.
In addition, we have just begun checking out Federal work at the VA,
or one of the VA hospitals or agencies which offer mental health
services. I am not sure that the VA would work on a temp basis, but
perhaps when I graduate, for a full or part time position.Do any of
you know mental health persons working at any of the Government
agencies? If so, please let me know who to contact? I can give my home
number if you prefer me too.
Thank you
Renee Pavlus
A few of you mensioned that you would be willing to speak to me about
some of the issues I face.
I wasn't able to make it to the Federation convension this year. I am
planning to attend next year. I am not sure I am on the list since I
have not paid the dues. I would, in addition appreciate any advice.
