Online Resources on Compassion Satisfaction, Compassion Fatigue, Secondary Trauma & Vicarious Trauma

 Below are some sites that have particular importance to work around the costs of caring. We have provided a brief summary of the sites and links to specific things we think you might find useful. If you have any  suggestions for other sites, please do let us know through the contact us page.  Please note that some of these links are to non-profit organizations and others to for-profit organizations. While the ProQOL.org does not endorse nor receive any payment for  advertisement from any of the organizations, they believe that these are  worth consideration as to whether or not they may fit your needs. The list has been carefully considered and the ProQOL.org makes no endorsement of them.  Financial support for theProQOL.org can come from the for-profit arm of the ProQOL.

Beth Hudnall Stamm ProQOL Institute

Previous trainings have been  conducted for the Army Medical Division, The National Institutes of  Health, and public and private institutions and organizations. These  for-profit courses help pay for the activities of the ProQOL.org. In  addition to training courses, Beth also does motivational talks about  her experiences as a traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivor and how  compassion satisfaction and compassion fatigue and Professional Quality  of Life helped her return to her work and to full participation in her  community. She is always accompanied by her service dog Sophie who is a  crowd favorite!
