Do keep trying. I've had chaplains at GBMC and University of Maryland act initially interested in presentations on Paganism and their patients, and then disappear... Hospice of Baltimore had me in for a presentation as did a Baltimore professional counseling group. There's some interest. The American Association of Pastoral Counselors (AAPC) were at least friendly at their Mid-Atlantic Conference a few years ago. They think of themselves as interfaith -- but opened the session with Christian prayer. I am presenting Sept 7th at the Northern VA PPD. I'll post an entry on this shortly! Thanks, Michael R.

It didn't work out well with Philadelphia's William Way Community Center and their "Out & Faithful" program series. The center didn't support the O&F committee's efforts very well. And the O&F committee didn't have much of an interest in Pagan faiths and traditions. Then again...neither did the Pagan communities have much of an interest in participating. Maybe another time.... Hope you'll be presenting at this year's 2008 DC Pagan Pride day event and that I'll be able to attend. I enjoyed what you did last year; and I've been referring your theraputic services when people inquire about resources. I keep trying, Mike.
