I am certainly glad to see that this is a discussion that has been on the minds of many of you on the list serve but, I would love to know if anyone on the list has a model that is currently working that they would be willing to share with me as I begin to work on this issue. If there is such a document of even bulleted pointers about implementation, service models, employer buy-in and investment, curriculum development, etc that would be most appreciated. Thanks, Leonard E.
