Please see the following guest post from John Armstrong with an update about an SRV study group in Ireland.
Five people have gathered, in the home of Mary and Colm Kealy in Gort, Ireland, for the very first session of the SRVx10 Study Group to be held here. Mary Kealy (also a member of the second study group in Australia), Mary Rowan, Breda Casey, Aoife O’Toole and Rachel Cassan commenced this evening with an overview and briefing session. Most have considerable SRV experience, including PASSING, but have not previously had access to Dr. Wolfensberger’s full event, which they will be presenting the workshop to each other over the next 4 days. John Armstrong will supervise the event and provide feedback, with Lynne (his wife) providing first class catering for the group. It is hoped that the full 5 sessions will be completed in Ireland over the next two years, enabling these aspirants to better utilize Social Role Valorization in their work and personal life, and for some to continue progressing into trainer roles, having completed these introductory sessions.
