Honorarium
To support out work, we kindly request an honorarium ($250) for our training services. We may also request reimbursement for travel and/or lodging if the location is outside the District. Honoraria and reimbursements are not required, and DC SAFE will conduct trainings free of cost on a case-by-case basis.
current community trainings
The following trainings have previously been offered for Continuing Education Credits under the District of Columbia Board of Social Work. At this time, the courses are under review by the Board of Social Work. We will schedule the courses once they are approved. Please contact Brandon Kemper Seeley, DC SAFE’s Training and Education Manager, at bseeley@dcsafe.org with any questions.
