As the museum field continues to prioritize well-being as a fundamental value, how can we continue developing thriving museums that contribute to the creation of healthy, vibrant communities? We had the opportunity to contribute to the AAM2024 theme with session tracks organized around Personal, Organizational, Community, and Society. Thank you American Alliance of Museums for creating this space and inviting many of us to share our thoughts and ideas!

We are excited to host a special Circle of Hope, in collaboration with E.P.I.C. (Empowered Parents in Community) located in Durham, NC. We look forward to pouring into our parents, as they give so much of themselves to their children.

Fresh Perspective Course
NASW NC Approved for 1.5 CE
We are moving through historic times as our families and communities seek to find balance. In order to ensure the safety of our children, youth service professionals working with families must be in the forefront of supporting families and guardians by helping them maintain their physical and emotional well-being. Thus a model of wellness that specifically speaks to the well-being of parents and guardians, while also serving as a source of support for their children is essential. Utilizing a model of wellness is particularly important during times of crisis and uncertainty.
