Free live event series hosted by Together Estranged as part of Family Estrangement Awareness Month

BOSTON - BostonChron -- Together Estranged, an online US-based international nonprofit organization that supports and empowers those estranged from family, is announcing the release of its schedule of speakers (https://www.togetherestranged.org/togethernesss...) for its 4th annual Togetherness Series. The theme for 2024 is Healing with Chosen Community.

The series is a marquee component of the organization's observance of November as Family Estrangement Awareness Month.

During the month, Together Estranged (TE) will preview the events that comprise the series and invite members of the community to learn more and explore the featured speakers' work as potential supportive elements of their own journeys in navigating the experience of estrangement.

The events and the community engagement opportunities leading up to them are in accordance with TE's three pillar mission (https://www.togetherestranged.org/mission-and-v...) to support and empower those who are impacted by family estrangement while seeking to destigmatize the experience within culture at large.

The Togetherness Series will officially kick off with its first event on November 28 with life coach Aoife McElwain and will continue through mid December with speakers including psychotherapist and popular podcast host Whitney Goodman, estrangement researchers and authors Karl Melvin and Becca Bland, an engaging social mixer and other events. The full line up of speakers and schedule can be found on the events page on Together Estranged's website.

"November is a time for our community to come together when many around the world are joining their families. We create chosen communities to heal and grow so that we can live well even as we navigate estrangement," says TE CEO Angel Cassin.

"Through publicizing and promoting the series in advance and as part of Family Estrangement Awareness Month, we wish to reach more people who may be experiencing estrangement and may feel alone. It also serves as an opportunity to encourage productive conversation around estrangement more broadly within the larger discourse."
