From its inception, the DIR model has defined development through attuned relationships. Finding, strengthening, and sustaining these relationships is central to practicing DIR and other relational approaches. This requires a nuanced consideration of families’ contexts, capacities, values, and lived experiences. What do families really need and how can they be supported? This March, Profectum’s Deepening the DIR perspective conference asks that question and calls clinicians, educators, policy-makers, and parents into a Focus on Families.
