As you no doubt know, the Alliance is a volunteer based international network of neary 4,500 members interested in tending the human psyche and the collective soul. Founded in 2010 by Bonnie Bright, the organization is expanding and deepening its call to offer ways to dialogue, explore, experience, and pollinate the many colored ways that depth psychology serves the world and its beings.

Welcome and I hope you will dive in where called. One helpful place to begin your exploration of who we are and what we do is to go to the Welcome Center under the Home Page. Additionally you might join fellow board member, Donna May and myself at the Deep Meet and Greet tomorrow evening on Zoom, if you are available. There is much happening happening this year in the community and I hope you will feel free to leap in and share, receive, teach, and learn, as your heart desires.

With soul,

Mark, board member
