Goals

Much of this unique weekend event is interactive, enabling participants to contribute their knowledge, experience, and skills. The goals of this event are to:

Facilitate information-sharing and dialog among a multidisciplinary group of individuals and organizations working on family bonding and attachment issues;

Provide a historical and cross-cultural perspective on bonding and attachment, and the various practices in which different cultures and communities have engaged that either promote or inhibit successful bonding and attachment;

Delineate the wide spectrum of societal problems in North America that have their roots in an inadequate understanding of, and disregard for, the significance of family bonding and attachment;

Facilitate interactive, cross-disciplinary, small-group discussions and, in particular, encourage multiple attendees from the same region, or with similar interests, to develop model communities or collaborative projects;

Translate evidence-based scientific findings into action steps that can be applied at every level of society;

• Encourage Summit participants to expand and deepen the Alliance by helping to bring into reality its vision of a broad-based social movement that will significantly improve the state of family bonding and attachment in North America.


Continuing Education (CE) Credits will be provided in these categories: RN, LM, LVN, LCSW, & MFT for a maximum of 30 hours.
