Join Drs. Anya Sheftel Ph.D. and Erica Austin Ph.D., of the Washington State University, for a two-part workshop on motivational interviewing (MI) for rural healthcare providers. They will also introduce the "Getting to the Heart and Mind of the Matter Toolkit", which helps patients choose trustworthy sources of information and respond to brain-friendly promotional messages.

The focus of the workshops will be using MI in time-limited patient interactions about vaccinations. The workshops will aim to meet the needs of novice and experienced MI practitioners.
