"If we dare to hope, should we not dare to look at ourselves hoping?"

It is this question, which was asked by Menniger in his address to the 115th annual meeting of the American Psychiatric Association in 1959, that fuels our work in the HOPE KIDS program. I believe the five hope-focused practices in Nurturing Hopeful Souls are one way of responding to Menniger's query.

Hello Lenora,

I have been taking part on a study group about narrative inquiry here in Brazil. This evening I will be presenting my impressions and conclusions about your thesis AN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL NARRATIVE INQUIRY: MY HOPE AS AN EDUCATOR. i am thrilled because I see much of my own hope in your words and experiences.
It would be a great opportunity if we could talk about that.

=)
