3. Spirituality Teleconference
On December 9, 2008 at 7:30 pm, you will have the opportunity to participate in a teleconference on Spirituality.

Enjoy hearing John Jordan, MSW, LCSW, Vice President of Clinical Services at United Family Services, and gain tools to better understand your spirituality and grow comfortable with your own humanity.
This teleconference is free and open to all who are interested. Please register by December 2 by calling 1-800-344-4867 or email vab@nmss.org.
