Sharing our voices: Recent awareness events making an impact
08/29/24 12:30:pmInternational OCD Foundation national conference
Team members represented Rogers at the 29th annual International OCD Foundation (IOCDF) conference in Orlando, Florida. Rogers was also the proud sponsor of a professional mentoring session that took place during the event.
This is the nation’s largest conference focused exclusively on obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and related disorders. Bringing together people with OCD, their loved ones, and mental health professionals the three-day event offers education about the latest treatments, research, and practice.
American Psychological Association annual convention
Rogers team members were a part of the American Psychological Association’s (APA) annual convention in Seattle earlier this month. Rogers was once again a sponsor of the event, and we hosted this year’s reception.
APA describes itself as “the leading scientific and professional organization representing psychology in the United States, with more than 157,000 researchers, educators, clinicians, consultants, and students as its members.”
Light up the Lake
At Oconomowoc’s annual Light Up the Lake celebration, Rogers’ boat named ‘Beacon of Hope’ hit the water on Lac La Belle as part of the lighted boat parade. The emcee of the event had a script to share with community members about our services, which included:
“Every sailor relies on their crew. Do you have someone you can depend on when the waters get rough? It’s great to lean on family and friends, but we all need support on meeting life’s many challenges. So, let’s navigate those stormy seas together. Just like great teamwork can lead to smooth sailing, the experts at Rogers can help you chart a course of hope through life.”
National Night Out
Jennifer Ellis, community relations liaison, Brown Deer, participated in the Community Vibes/National Night Out event for the Brown Deer community and surrounding areas. Jennifer had the opportunity to network with several of the great community partners we work with to help patients on their healing journeys.
