Vision
Provide an expanded educational program through zoom to include psychodrama and sociodrama workshops, courses and group psychotherapy packages, playback theatre, didactic presentations, book readings, and more. Designed to complement the educational events already being offered by ASGPP, this program can raise money and enhance our financial security of our community, significantly deepen our sociometry, because people deeply bond in these educational and experiential events, access the expertise of our senior therapists, raise the reputation of American psychodrama around the world, and attract those who might be interested in our broad array of offerings, such as our didactic presentations, courses and book readings to become warmed up to psychodrama and the Moreno legacy.
Provide scholarships for psychodrama and sociometry training, so that every student who wants training can participate in conferences and workshops
Support research and publishing, including the Journal of Psychodrama, Sociometry and Group Psychotherapy
Collaborate with ASGPP, AGPA and other organizations to supplement organizational and conference expenses, and encourage psychodrama presentations in their conference programming
Offer community outreach, such as the current initiative “July 4th Tragedy: Help and Healing in Highland Park”
