2019-2020 Annual Report
Our SIG continues to host monthly peer consultation calls that bring members together, with a focus on clinical consultation and connecting members to resources and referrals. We have also collaborated with the Social Anxiety and Child and Adolescent SIGs to invite host cross-SIG consultation calls.
This year our SIG has built a referral directory to aid in referrals for OCD treatment and to build our awareness of other providers in our areas. We are continuing to connect people to community resources, and we are currently planning webinars and blog posts.
At the 2020 conference, we will host a brown bag lunch to discuss goals for the coming year and to bring members together.
