Kairos and Narrative Facilitation

We're always looking to find innovative and gripping examples of TLA in action, and Stephanie Sandmeyer in Portland, OR is doing exactly that. Working with families to create audio snapshots and oral histories, Stephanie works to make sure wisdom isn't lost in the hustle and bustle of contemporary life. She employs what she calls "narrative facilitation," which utilizes the foundations of TLA work by incorporating tools for the exploration and preservation of individual and family stories. These tools include the recording of oral histories, on-site archiving, workshops and memoir/biography consultation.
To read and see more about Stephanie and her Kairos organization, please take a look at her website.
Creative Arts Therapies Week
Having just finished national national Creative Arts Therapy Week, it seems like it might be well worth while to remind folks of the National Coalition of Creative Arts Therapies Associations (NCCATA), which has some great resources regarding upcoming conferences, professional associations, and some occasional job and grant postings.
It was there that I found out about the Portland, OR celebration of Creative Arts Therapies. Check out all that was offered there! Any other areas have anything like this?
