SECFR Conference 2020 in Birmingham, Alabama
“A Vision for Families: Exploring and Solidifying Professional Identity in Family Sciences”
April 2-4, 2020
Birmingham, Alabama
A professional and CEU opportunity for professionals, students, and practitioners.
SECFR, an affiliate of NCFR, has planned for our 2020 Annual Conference to be held in Birmingham, Alabama from April 2-4, 2020. The theme of this upcoming conference is “A Vision for Families: Exploring and Solidifying Professional Identity in Family Sciences.” SECFR is accepting proposals for their Annual Conference through December 15, 2019. There will be a student award competition and a networking social outing with food and beverage. See the links below to access information on the Call for Proposals and the upcoming conference.
SECFR is taking a two-pronged approach to engaging participants with the theme of the event, “A Vision for Families: Exploring and Solidifying Professional Identity in Family Sciences”.
A Vision for Families
The first part of this theme is intended to encourage students, faculty, and helping professionals to submit proposals for poster and oral presentations on any topic of interest that is relevant to their “vision” of family well-being and/or family functioning as it is related to programs, policy, research, theory, and quantitative or qualitative work.
Exploring and solidifying Professional Identity in Family Sciences
The second part of this theme is intended to encourage faculty and helping professionals to submit workshop and roundtable proposals on topics that can provide future family science professionals (i.e., students) with information, ideas, and mentorship related to the field.
KEYNOTE SPEAKER: Dr. Francesca Adler-Baeder, professor and extension specialist in the department of Human Development & Family Sciences at Auburn University, and the principal investigator of The Alabama Healthy Marriage & Relationship Education Initiative..
