2024
CONFERENCE
September 11-13th
What is the conference about?
This conference is a two-day event that focuses on spreading awareness and networking within the safe workspace & whistleblowing community. We have a variety of high-profile attorneys, social workers, and congressional guest speakers who are spearheading the movement, as well as whistleblowers.
Where: 1608 K Street, NW, Washington, DC
The purpose of the conference is to spread awareness of whistleblower mental health and related issues. The conference is for whistleblowers who want to learn more about their rights and protections and be part of a peer support network. Those who attend the conference will share with other whistleblowers and survivors about their lessons learned and strategies for coping and resilience. They will hear from attorneys, government officials and advocates about the current status of laws, programs and policies that affect them and have an opportunity to influence those practices.
WoA welcomes family members to participate and is in the process of developing opportunities for the children of whistleblowers to engage in a mentor program. The WPI will also include discussion on Whistleblower Protection advocate certification, announce Giraffe Award winners and will walk to the White House in solidarity for the President to recognize whistleblowers with a Rose Garden Ceremony.

COURSE OVERVIEW
Course Title
Abstract/Course Outline (Should be 1-2 paragraphs)
Course Length
Agenda
This outline should display a course breakdown with a timed schedule of the day's event(s). It must include individual course segments, guided discussion, and activities, where applicable.
Resources for further study:
List at least 3 current (within the past 10 years), relevant (aligned with learning objectives and content), supporting (e.g., peer- review journal articles), and complete references (in APA format) as evidence that program content has met the requirements for APA standards. Books may be used in addition to peer reviewed journals/periodicals. This is a required field for APA Credits. Please note that research cited in the references must have clear linkage between program content. For example, simply listing a journal article on a broad or related issue is unacceptable until and unless the applicant specifically documents how the referenced research is relevant to the specific program content. It is not acceptable to assert that the program content has been included in peer-reviewed publications without providing specific references that are currently available to reviewers and support that assertion. If included references are authored or co-authored by the session presenter(s), please be sure to note this as a potential conflict of interest later in this application.
Please include at least five references (or 50%, whichever is less) that were published within the past five years. Please use APA format.
This workshop is geared to the clinician at the following levels:
Beginner
Intermediate

COURSE OBJECTIVES
List specific, clear and concise learning objectives and/or outcomes for the course that are both behavioral and measurable.
(Course learning objectives need to be measurable and/or observable. They should state what a participant will be able to demonstrate immediately after attending the course. To "understand" or "have familiarity with" something is not measurable or observable. Verbs like "describe, name, explain, define, recall, list, restate, role-play, summarize, and write" are the most common used to describe what the attendee will actually be able to demonstrate after attending the training.)
Objective 1
Objective 2
Objective 3
DIVERSITY
