Community Calendar

Join the UMaine Division of Lifelong Learning, UMaine School of Social Work, and Omni Integrated Wellness, Inc., for a free training intended for those practicing or preparing to practice in clinical or community-based therapeutic environments.

This session also serves as a preview of the 2026 Wellness Series—an opportunity to explore the practices and frameworks that will be developed in greater depth throughout the coming year—offered through UMaine Division of Lifelong Learning Professional Development Programs.

Explore an innovative approach to wellness and care with Whole Me & DBT™, a Trauma-Integrative™ model that expands traditional DBT into whole-person practice. In this 90-minute training, you’ll be introduced to the Whole Wellness Arc, a framework that strengthens resilience, deepens presence, and supports both personal and community wellbeing. Through practical strategies and reflective practices, you’ll learn ways to integrate skills with sustainable self-care and social care, cultivating balance, clarity, and renewal in both your work and your life.
