Watering Our Roots

Using Family Stories to Ensure our Future Learns from our Past

Wednesday | November 27th | 16:00

Family stories are the backbone of functional intergenerational families. By engaging in family history conversations, we create enduring bonds that connect our families to their foundations. Older generations revel in the opportunity to recount life experiences and hard-earned wisdom, and younger generations, including GenX and Millennials, are hungry for the deeply personal ties to their roots. This dynamic seminar led by Stacy Derby will explore the importance of intergenerational communication, and how to integrate more family stories naturally into your family gatherings.
