Date Saturday, August 1, 2020
Time 10:00 AM – 11:30 AM
Location Virtual (Zoom)

This event explores how touch foundationally supports relational experiences and healthy development.

It addresses the challenge that pandemic conditions transformed beneficial physical contact into a potential health risk.
