IARPP 2022 Conference • June 16-18

After two years of postponements, Phil Ringstrom (USA), Hazel Ipp (Canada) and I (Ilene Philipson, USA), as conference co-chairs, are thrilled to be offering our 18th annual conference, June 16-18 in Los Angeles.

It has been three years since we last met in-person as a community, years of isolation, suffering, loss, and unimaginable anxiety. We will come together in June to celebrate our resilience, mourn our losses, and imagine our futures. We especially are pleased that so many from our international community will be joining us, and that we will be able to offer some 125 presentations. While our first plenary will focus on Reckoning with Catastrophe: Will We Ever Be the Same?, the conference will focus intently on our clinical work in this most difficult period of history.

The Luskin Conference Center on the UCLA campus is really an ideal setting for holding a conference in these times. Opened only six years ago, it is a state of the art conference center and hotel, built to take advantage of Southern California’s warm weather with rooms that are not only spacious and well-ventilated, but with gathering spaces that open to the outside grounds. Our Saturday night gala will be under the stars on the Luskin’s rooftop terrace. And of course the Center is doing everything to insure our safety. Vaccinations will be required.

So we look forward to meeting in June with hopes that our coming together will take place in a world that is not at war, a world that allows us to feel safe once again in each other’s company.
