Testimonials

I am a parent who have not seen his daughter for 14 months. In the 2007 PA Workshop in Florida, I got: - To speak to the best professionals in the 'industry' - More practical information related to my case than in any 3 months period (or longer) prior to that. - A good dose of reality about the workings of many elements in the PA trenches - Schmooze with parents like myself, vent, listen to others' problems. - Excellent contacts for future handling of my case All of that for the (monetary) equivalent of just 3 hours consulting with my attorney. Most highly recommended to anyone who wants to move forward, is willing to accept responsibility for their relationship with their kids and is ready to do something about it NOW.

This workshop was a must for mental health professionas, especially if they work with families going through divorce or have been and are experiencing parental alienation.

The best workshop I have ever attended!

I have never been so impressed by the absolute altruism exhibited by a list of speakers. This group of Mental Health and Legal professionals have the children as their focus, and speak with the straight-forward knowledge of their fields to achieve a true "Best Interest of the Child."

As a mental health professional to whom the concept of PA and PAS was relatively new, I was delighted with the amount of excellent information disseminatd and the caliber of the speakers. This seminar provided me with in-depth material and motivated me to do further research in this area. As an alienated grandparent, the seminar validated my feelings. It provided me with greater understanding and ideas of how to help others experiencing this all too common phenomenon.

This workshop was educational and provocative. It dealt with theoretical and practical aspects of parental alienation, a troubling social phenonmenon found in acrimonious disintegrating relationships and divorces. Professionals and lay people dealing with this dynamic would greatly benefit by attending.

This conference was one of the best experiences I've had in recent memory. As an alienated parent, it was very validating to be in a room full of like-minded people and professionals who recognize the problem and are working to raise awareness. The energy was amazing!

Extremely informative and enlightening.

As a bit of an outsider to the PA realm myself, I was very impressed to see such a diverse gathering of parents and persons from varied professions, from so many different areas of the country, and from such wideranging backgrounds, all come together with an interest to learn and exchange information towards increasing public and industry awareness of alienation and its effect upon children. A smartly done affair, the 2007 PAAO Workshop will certainly be remembered by all in attendance as a truly historic event.
