The State Firefighters and Fire Marshal’s Association has invited us to their 141st Annual Conference in San Marcos! There, we have met with the brave men and women who risk their lives to save ours in times of crisis. While there, Dr. Villanueva presented for the firefighters. We thank them for extending their invitation to us.
The Nueva Luz Foundation was invited to join the All-Hazards Conference. We have enjoyed ourselves speaking with the first responders and attending the panels provided as well as having our own booth! Dr. Villanueva was given the honor to present to first responders on the effects of trauma and PTSD. We thank the coordinators of the All-Hazards Conference for inviting us to this exciting event!
In Collaboration with the Lower Rio Grande Development Council, The Nueva Luz Foundation and Dr. Villauneva presented Understanding the Impact to first responders on the effects of trauma and PTSD.
