International Human Learning Resources Network(IHLRN) is an organization that was begun by Virginia Satir in 1970 to foster human growth and development by means of a conference that focuses on innovations in family therapy and intervention tools that she and others had developed, and other recent developments.
Welcome to our website, we hope you enjoy your visit and learn more about our organization.
The major objective of the IHLRN is to build
on
the legacy of Virginia Satir, founder and
co-facilitator of the first 17 conferences.
Originally restricted to persons completing a
month-long seminar,
the IHLRN conferences are now open to persons who
have
studied Virginia Satir's methods and to people interested
in learning
more about her teachings.
Looking for Kindred Spirits?
Join Us at an Annual IHLRN Conference.
Our IHLRN conferences feature a week-long gathering that provides
a
warm,
friendly and positive setting for attendees to learn, grow and share.
Over the past three decades, our conferences have
led to the formation
of a world-wide network of persons who hold
similar values and
are interested in effective ways to learn, teach,
and
practice how to be more fully human.
About the 2008 IHLRN Conference
The 2008 IHLRN Conference will be held on October 19-26 in Ashland, Oregon at the Ashland Springs Hotel. Ashland is a small yet impressively cultural town located in the Rogue Valley - surrounded by mountains, valleys, rivers and lakes - a virtual sanctuary for nature and peace lovers.
IHLRN provides a scholarship fund for student practitioners and encourages the development of new techniques. In Mexico, IHLRN supports the local schools in Tesquetenango, donating computers, school supplies, clothing,
and other resources.
Partners and/or significant others of participants have always been welcome. The number of attendees usually is kept between 90 and
120 persons in order to achieve a critical mass without becoming
too overcrowded.
