Organizational meeting of the special interest group for children and adolescents

The Special Interest Group (SIG) for children and adolescents is the first group to approach EMDRIA and ask for a formal organizational status. This group is devoted to fostering the development and availability of EMDR for children and adolescents. Possible SIG sponsored activities may include: information clearinghouse; development of practice and training standards; protocols for special populations; education of professional, school, medical and lay communities; peer support for research and writing; and advocacy for underserved child/adolescent populations. At this meeting, we will introduce participants to the history and purpose of this SIG, move forward with formalizing the organizational structure as per EMDRIA requirements, and begin to plan activities to be sponsored by the group.
