5th Annual Support Staff Conference Highlights

Over 140 support staff from 59 counties/agencies showed up for this year's support staff conference. Our theme this year was, "It's all about us for a change" featured speakers Paul Buckley, Marriage and Family Therapist from Minneapolis addressed "Handling the Angry Client" and after lunch Bob Brophy, Motivational Speaker tackled Success under Stress. Being the 5th year, Les Schultz, Probation Director from Brown County who has organized this training for the 5th year and acts as Host decided to tell a few jokes for the first time. Most said he tried his best, but needs to practice a little more if this continues.
