Amid the unique challenges faced in various professions, it's essential to address compassion fatigue and prioritize mental well-being. Join us for our 17th Annual Compassion Fatigue Conference, taking place in a hybrid format on May 15, 2024.

The theme of this year's conference is "Prioritizing Mental Health Across Professions" and we look forward to having you join us to explore the impacts of compassion fatigue on mental health across different career paths and discuss effective strategies for recognizing, managing, and preventing it.

By understanding the unique dynamics of compassion fatigue in diverse professions, individuals can cultivate resilience and well-being, fostering a culture of support and self-care within their professional environments. Through proactive measures and coping strategies, individuals can mitigate the effects of compassion fatigue and nurture their mental well-being while continuing to provide vital support to those in need.
