WORCESTER - This week The Bridge of Central Massachusetts launched a new Web site for the agency's Training Institute.
The site, www.thebridgetraininginstitute.org will feature information on upcoming professional development workshops sponsored by The Bridge, as well as resources regarding Evidence-Based Practices and Best Practices.
The site was developed by Pirata Media with funding from Mount Wachusett Community College's Compassion Capital Fund Demonstration Sustainability Award program.
The Bridge Training Institute is led by the agency's Director of Business Development, Stephen Murphy. He said everyone involved with the Training Institute is very excited to see the site launched.
"We are delighted with the site," he said. "It will be a resource for mental health professionals and will make it very easy for people to register for our upcoming workshops."
