Grounded in the Strengthening Families Framework, the 10th Annual Summit: The Power of Stories, will extend its lens to an important vehicle for communicating family strength: Storytelling. Stories have the power to move, heal, and expand our perspectives. One personal story can influence decision-makers more powerfully than legions of protesters.

We'll spend the day looking at how stories promote protective factors, explore the collection and dissemination of stories, and consider how the power of stories can be harnessed to strengthen families and build stronger communities.

​This year's Summit will be an engaging in-person experience that will convene parent leaders, practitioners, and community members engaged in family support and strengthening from around our state. We will prioritize showcasing NH expertise with an eye toward presenters and attendees representing the diverse cultures and perspectives in our state. The day will be one to learn, share, and recharge.
