One time when I was looking for an address, I accidentally ended up in the basement of a funeral home, which contained offices of other businesses. MORBID, heh?!!! On the door of one of the (very small) offices was a sign that listed the names of about TEN people, followed by the title, "Systems Facilitators" in much the same manner as follows: Jones, F. R., Public Accountant. Because the city in which I live is a moderate size and not a metropolis, I recognized a number of the names as full-time faculty (with full-time jobs) in psychology and in educational psychology at the local university. I also recognized some other names as psychologists, in part because of some recent scandals that had badly tarnished the reputation of the mental health professions on a local level.
Why would these people have been taking on extra work as "systems facilitators"? What duties exactly does the job comprise? Would the fact that they were working in a funeral home be significant?

I am somewhat familiar with "Systems Theory", relating to matters such as family roles, boundaries and secrecy. However, but it must be noted that families all seems to have their secrets, skeletons in the closet, boundaries, and people who pay their way in the larger System. Is it the larger System that these "facilitators" are all about?
