When oncology surgeon Dr. Caitlin Patten was diagnosed with breast cancer, she naturally questioned her identity as a doctor and thought about her own mortality. After relying on the most up-to-date science, she is now cancer-free. Today, she brings that experience to her patients with more empathy and understanding.

Strong communities need strong support systems.

We were proud to fund a Crisis Intervention and De-escalation training for social workers today at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire.

This evidence-based training gave students, community practitioners, and faculty tools to respond with care and calm when someone is in distress.
