Presented in part by the Geriatric Mental Health Alliance of New York, this training will teach participants the basic principles of Behavior Activation (BA). BA is a short-term intervention that has been shown to reduce depression among many populations, including adults, older adults and veterans. It is designed so anyone can use it, regardless of their clinical experience, as it helps people experience social, recreational and physical activities that have been shown to reduce the symptoms of depression.
