Hello! 


On behalf of the Board for the Kansas Association for Play Therapy, we appreciate your interest and efforts to make ourselves better practitioners, improve the awareness of play as a viable method of therapy and create a professional community to enhance outcomes for children and families. 

We are looking ahead to our next KSAPT Conference on May 3rd & 4th, 2012 in Junction City, KS.  Sueann Kenney-Noziska will be presenting on the topic of child & adolescent sexual abuse.

Additionally, KSAPT will be hosting regional trainings with a variety of speakers and topics; updates on these trainings can be found on our web page as events are formalized.  We welcome KSAPT members to help host these events.  Please email us at president@ksa4pt.org if you are interested in assisting in this new endeavor to provide our membership with affordable and relevant trainings, while promoting play therapy.

KSAPT has a new web technician; updates and improvements are on their way!  Feedback is welcome – please direct it to webmaster@ksa4pt.org

Hope to see some of you this month at our Play Therapy Workshops.
