Save the date of October 22-24, 2021!
Different meet-ups are taking shape with ideas on how to host the groups across the world. I am continually amazed and impressed by the intention, care, and desire to connect in meaningful and generative ways that contribute to doing and learning, reflection, and integration of our field work. This is one of the many of the reasons I love our community of practitioners so much.
The LIST OF MEET-UPS
Here is an update on what we've got currently. Please reach out to the local organizers if you want to help an existing effort or reach out to Launa@IFVP.org to discuss starting your own.
East Coast hosted by Rachel Thompson and Brian Tarallo of NOVA Scribes 
They are on track to host a 1.5 day in person event. They plan on hosting up to 100 in-person with an open space concept. The focus will really be around connection and "rekindling". Registration will open soon.
