The East Side Institute for Group and Short Term Psychotherapy is proud to announce its fifth annual Psych Out Awards benefit to be held at the elegant Tribeca Rooftop on Monday, February 6, 2006. The Psych Out Awards honor colleagues who have made outstanding contributions to human development, learning and community building. The Psych Out Awards event is also a benefit to support the Institute. As a privately funded non-profit, we rely on the contributions of our friends and supporters to enable us to design cutting edge development programs and to train professionals internationally.

In 2006, a portion of the monies raised will go to support two exciting new training initiatives: the Developing Teachers Fellowship Program in New York City and the Development Centre for Youth and Community in Johannesburg, South Africa. The Developing Teachers Fellowship Program is a year-long intensive training program for NYC public school teachers who will learn to create dynamic and productive learning environments using the Institute's developmental education approach. The Development Centre for Youth and Community is a collaboration with the Living Together Institute and other South African organizations dedicated to finding more creative ways to help young people play a leadership role in developing new, community-based responses to HIV/AIDS and the stigma and shame associated with the disease.

You can support the Psych Out Awards by buying a ticket for $250, $500 or $1,000; by giving a tax-deductible gift or buying an advertisement in our journal.
