Following up on last month’s article describing the revision to our National Faculty (NF) and Peer Review process, a few clarifications:

For Certified Educators who were certified before 2018, no change has been made, you will continue to show evidence of working with your National Faculty competencies during your peer reviews.

For Certified Educators who were certified 2018 or later and have yet to achieve National Faculty status, please see the updated process outlined in the Certification Manual. A quick overview:

As part of the Foundation for ACPE's new Justice, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Grants Initiative, funding is now available to support historically underrepresented CECs, Residents and/or Psychotherapy Students to attend the ACPE annual meeting, or, when not meeting, the Community of Practice gathering of their choice. This fund will provide support of up to $1,000 to assist with meeting registration, hotel/lodging, or transportation costs. This year, up to $10,000 is available in funding.

Eligibility: Any current ACPE CEC, Resident, or Spiritually-integrated Psychotherapy student.

The Living Web of Socio-Spirituality is an integrative model that blends pastoral theology, relational systemic therapy, and narrative practice. It recognizes the need to connect social justice to spirituality as a robust foundation for psychotherapy.

Make plans now to join ACPE as we come together in New Orleans, the South’s Most Interesting City, for what promises to be a unique social and educational conference celebrating our values, sharing our voices, and growing our vision together. Building upon the work we have been doing to become an anti-racist organization that is actively engaging and addressing biases, this conference will begin our transition from knowledge building to application and integration of what we have been learning. Throughout the week, there will be many opportunities to reconnect and engage with colleagues, experience some of the many cultures of ACPE and our host city, and to take time to heal, recharge, and have some fun together!
