Announcing Intermediate Level Training Programs


CANY drama therapy group, leader, teens
Due to the success of CANY's 2010 training workshops, we're excited to announce that we will launch a new Intermediate Level Drama Therapy Training Program this Spring.  "We want to our training workshops to help artists, therapists and educators solidify the connection between the creative arts and healing," said CANY Program Director Lucy McLellan (pictured here leading a drama therapy group).

The extraordinarily talented people who have attended past workshop
sdefinitely influenced how CANY is developing this new level of programming.

"Based on the feedback we received from past training workshop participants, there's clearly a demand for an intermediate level training program.  People are excited about expanding their concrete skills and then using them to make a difference in their clients' lives," noted McLellan.

When asked what she enjoys most about teaching these workshops, McLellan said, "Working with a diverse population is definitely one of the good things about teaching.  I enjoy seeing how new professional connections are created within our workshops."

CANY will keep its E-News Readers updated about the new training program.
New Year.  New Website.

"I've had a great time collaborating with the entire team at Firespring and everyone at CANY is looking forward to the site launch," commented Marketing & Operations Manager Gina Verdi.  "We're also looking forward to giving CANY's website users a more interactive and informative experience."
