Prevention Specialist Credentialing
The prevention field is an often unrecognized and undervalued part of our approach to health and wellness. We are a reactionary society that focuses most of our efforts on responding to illness through the strategy of treatment. As a result of this focus, the field of prevention has lagged behind our colleagues in treatment, while also consistently receiving the smallest distribution of financial support.
The goal of this course is to encourage those who are not yet credentialed to begin the journey. It’s not as scary as you might have imagined!
