Resources for More Training
April 4, 2013
You?ve already completed HFI?s Reservist Training, but you know there is still more to learn ? and the Internet lists far too many resources than you know what to do with it. Look no further. HFI Reservist Chaplain, Stu Rayner, who is a Family and Marriage therapist, compiled a short list of resources for more training in Emotional and Spiritual Care. In the coming months, we?ll feature even more, but here are a few to get you started:
