1. Welcome!
This is the ninth posting of the ACT in New England List (if
you missed the previous postings, you can read them
here). I usually send
these every two months but am sending this update due to the
number of ACT trainings in New England this spring and summer.
This edition will be abbreviated and will focus on the current
schedule of trainings.
The primary
purpose of this list is to inform New Englanders of upcoming ACT
training opportunities in the area. A secondary purpose is to
support the budding ACT community here. If you hear about any
ACT training in New England, please let me know so I can get the
info up on the site and out to the list ASAP. And if you are
having a training of your own, please let me know and I will
help to create a listing for you.
