After 25 years, funding recently ended for the Research and Training Center on Family Support and Children's Mental Health in the School of Social Work. Join a panel of faculty and supporters as they share memories Thursday, Nov. 5, at 3 p.m., followed by a reception at 4:30 p.m. Both events are in the Smith Union Ballroom, third floor. RSVP to Sarah Peterson at spet@pdx.edu.

The panelists are RTC "historians" Karl Dennis, Robert Friedman, Barbara Friesen, Sybil Goldman, Barbara Huff, Naomi Karp, Judith Katz-Leavy, Ira Lourie, and Sandra Spencer. Memories of the center have been posted on the RTC Web site. 

Not all is lost. A new center, with a focus on transition-aged youth, 14 to 30, is starting up with a new grant.
