Dear Group Community:

We are excited to announce that registration is open for the 2024 EGPS Annual Conference! We are looking forward to three days of learning, connecting, and grappling together while we navigate the theme “Contending with Dystopia: Experiencing of Selves and Bodies Through Group Process.”

This year, we will explore how groups can foster connection, co-regulation and provide opportunities to manage strong feelings in community. Together we will discover how group work can help understand the mind-body connection, how differences in identity and perspectives can show up in our bodily experiences, and how our bodies can help us know more about ourselves.

Please take a moment to look through our Conference brochure and discover all the exciting events the Conference has to offer, including:

  • An inspiring plenary with Michelle Lepak, LCSW and Greg Carson, LCSW
  • 2 ½ hour and double-session workshops by leaders in the group field
  • Large Group Experience facilitated by Mineko (Anne) Legendy, PhD and her team Leon Anthony James RN, BSN, MA and Sarah Rosenbaum, PhD.

Register soon, as all workshops have limited registration!

We are looking forward to gathering in November,

Aisha and Miriam
