Local Chapters Committee
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

By Steven Kuchuck<\/strong> (USA) and Marianne Kennedy <\/strong>(Australia)
\n<\/strong>Co-chairs of the Local Chapters Committee<\/p>\n

The Local Chapters Committee (LCC) met during the conference in Rome and heard reports from the chairs of the chapters in Australia, Chile, Greece, Israel, Mexico, Portugal, and Spain. \u00a0We had a very warm and collegial meeting, sharing information, difficulties, and excitement about the growing relational community in so many parts of the globe, including Brazil and Turkey where work has commenced to explore the possibility of forming new chapters in those countries. \u00a0Following the IARPP membership meeting, there was also discussion about the possibility of launching a chapter in Germany.<\/p>\n

At the LCC Meeting, one of the issues raised by a \u00a0number of chapter leaders concerned the challenge of language and what might be done to expand efforts already under way in some chapters to translate seminal relational works into multiple languages.\u00a0 The idea of setting up a listserv for the LCC members and co-chairs to communicate with each other was also discussed and this has now been implemented.<\/p>\n

We are happy to present short reports from Australia, Greece, and Mexico and will present more detailed reports on local chapters’ activities and achievements in the next eNews.<\/p>\n

With warm regards,
\nSteven Kuchuck and Marianne Kennedy<\/p>\n
