    Join Us for the UConn vs. UMass Football Game

    NASW/CT has a new initiative; to get social workers to work a little less and socialize a little more.  Burnout and compassion fatigue are not just the result of the job, they are also partly due to not taking the time to take really good care of ourselves.  So when UConn asked us to help them and help ourselves at the same time by inviting our members to their football games, we jumped at the chance.  What could be better for us than a day out in the fresh air, making some new friends, and cheering on our beloved Huskies?  And for a really great price!  Game time to be announced.
