NPSS presents at the International Critical Incident Stress Foundation’s (ICISF) 2025 World Congress

Our Executive Director was invited to co-present an original course, “Wellness: What’s this all about? What does it really mean?” This conference is held every two years and has attendees from across the globe. It is a great opportunity to learn and share from those in the field doing the actual work.

Wellness and Resiliency have been terms that have been the main focus of many in recent years. However, when asked what the terms mean, there are as many different answers as people asked. The purpose of this presentation was to allow attendees to gain an accurate and functional meaning of the terms and to develop a plan to incorporate the concepts into both their personal and organizational lives. Attendees began creating the framework for their plan as part of the presentation so that they left with actionable steps.

NPSS has had the honor of presenting at this event for many years. As an ICISF Faculty member, I am always in awe of the skills and dedication that CISM providers and educators from across the world bring to this event. It is something we look forward to each time – not just to share our knowledge and improve our skills, but to reconnect with long-time old friends.
