      <title>"Real Talk," a Clinical Consultation/Support Group For Members Who Identify as BIPOC (MAY 2026) (Tuesday, May 19, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;h4 style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.clinicalsocialworksociety.org/resources/Headshots/Board%20headshots/Amanda-Lee.jpg" alt="" title="" border="1" width="238" height="245" align="right" style="border-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); margin: 0px 0px 5px 10px;"&gt;Guest Facilitator: Amanda Lee, LCSW (San Diego)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;"Real Talk", a clinical consultation/support group developed with the oversight of the CSCSW's Diversity, Equity and Transformation (DET) Committee, the purpose of which is to provide a space for clinical social workers who identify as being Black, Indigenous, Mixed Race, or Person of Color (BIPOC) to meet on a monthly basis. The focus of this group is to provide an opportunity for networking, building solidarity, exploring intersectionality and decolonizing our practice.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;This group is a closed group for individuals who self-identify as&lt;/font&gt; &lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Black, Indigenous or Person of Color (BIPOC)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;font&gt;.

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;This email reminder is sent out widely to all contacts and is not filtered by how individuals self-identify; therefore, if you have received this email but do not identify as BIPOC, we ask that you respect the intention of this group by&lt;/font&gt; &lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;not&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;font&gt;logging in to the meeting.

      <title>Retirement Discussion Group -  May 2026 (Tuesday, May 26, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.clinicalsocialworksociety.org/resources/dreamstime_xl_108914970.jpg" alt="" title="" border="1" width="268" height="170" align="right" style="border-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); margin: 0px 0px 10px 20px;"&gt;Retirement! Is it on the horizon for you? The&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;strong style=""&gt;California Society for Clinical Social Work (CSCSW)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;invites you to join its&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Retirement Discussion Group (RDG).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;" color="#9E0B0F"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;F&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;ree group for CSCSW Members&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt; who are thinking about retiring&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;The group will provide a mutually supportive space for participants to explore how it's done&lt;span style=""&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;logistics, tapering down, clinical issues with clients, and our feelings about it. As we benefit from consultation and assistance at the beginning and middle phases of our careers, it is no different when it comes to closing out a fulfilling career in a way that we feel is ethically and practically sound.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Make a cup of coffee and join us &lt;strong&gt;8:30 a.m. - 10:00 a.m.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
