And we have even more reason to be optimistic about this. Loving More is beginning to work on teaming up with one of the major groups for professionals like the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality or the Association of Sex Educators, Counselors and Therapists to put on a one day symposium adjacent to one of their conferences in order to better educate their members about how to appropriately serve polyamorous clients. We are hoping this will be a springboard for later holding a similar symposium connected to the annual conference of the American Psychological Association.
Also, Loving More's Robyn Trask, as well as NCSF's Susan Wright and ITCR's Jim Fleckenstein have already presented several programs on open relationships/polyamory at SSSS and ASECT conventions, and routinely the rooms are packed. Also, ITCR is working on a brochure project and ways to get brochures into the hands of marriage and family therapists to better educate them.
All that said, there's clearly still a lot of work to do in thisi area.
