2023 Volume 2

RNE Magazine

Dear Friends,

All of us at Resolve New England (RNE) are happy to share the summer issue of our RNE e-magazine. Hopefully you are reading it on a beach or in a hammock! The articles in this issue – as always - reflect what we want every person to feel while struggling to grow their family – nurtured, informed and empowered. This mission feels more important than ever.

At RNE, we are not trying to rush summer, yet we are already looking forward to fall – the weather, the traditions, the foliage, and some treasured RNE events. Our Footsteps for Family Building Walk will be held on Sunday, October 1st, where people are welcome to join us in-person in Ashland, Massachusetts or to participate virtually by walking wherever they are (please tag us in your photos or posts!). We also are in awe that this year marks the 30th anniversary of our Family Building Conference, which will be held virtually on Saturday, November 18th.

We love connecting with you, the members of our community! Hopefully we will see you at one of our events, communicate with you on social media and/or hear from you by email. This summer RNE moved from our longtime office in Waltham to a new space in Concord, so feel free to let us know if you want to stop by to say hi.

Fondly,

Kate Weldon LeBlanc
RNE Executive Director
