Conference Theme

Integrating the Inter‑being

The Family as a Refuge of Belongingness

“Home is where we start from.” ‑ D.W Winnicott, MD.

This year's theme connects to the idea that it is the role of the family to make the home a refuge and not just a house. The major protective provision of the family is the experience of belongingness. Returning the family to a place of refuge, of belongingness, and as a resource of resolve requires each individual to return to fresh oneness. It requires the parts of the family system to be supported by parenting that is intentional and informed by wise-minded self-leadership. The continual threats and barriers from all directions to all parts of the home and family requires an integrated mental wellness approach.
