Family Enrichment Weekends

The Family Enrichment Weekend model was created by Chris Curry in 1982 and has been implemented by Families Together, Inc in Kansas, Families Together National Capital Region in Maryland, and Families Together for People with Disabilities in the Inland Northwest. Over 2000 families have participated in Family Enrichment Weekends. The Family Enrichment Weekend uses a unique format to provide ongoing family support and enhance family functioning. Families attend a Family Enrichment Weekend and receive ongoing support to increase family cohesion, restore family balance, and promote resiliency.

Please contact Ruth Garfield at 509-335-2321 if your family would like to attend a Family Enrichment Weekend.

If you would like to conduct a Family Enrichment Weekend for the families you serve, please contact us. We are available to provide staff training and ongoing assistance to help you plan and conduct your first Family Enrichment Weekend. We are also capable of “taking the Family Enrichment Weekend on the road” and will come to you and conduct the entire event for your organization. For additional information on training and support send an email to Chris Curry or call Chris at 208-596-2777. We also hope you will also take time to visit the Families Together website and learn about other family programs.
