Description
**For Direct Service Professionals | 1 Hour | 0.1 CEU through UW-Green Bay**
You show up for everyone else. The child who needs protecting. The client in crisis. The family that has no one else to call.
**So who's showing up for you?**
If you work in protective services, human services, health care, aging & disability services, or any caring profession, stress is part of the job. It builds up over time. Hard stories stay with you after you leave work. The exhaustion carries over to the next week. Some days you wonder how long you can keep doing this.
That isn't weakness. It's the cost of caring. **And it can be managed.**
