Uinta Academy held its semiannual Family Weekend seminar at the end of September. 168 parents and guardians attend in order to spend time with, and learn from, their daughters. The weekend conference focused on how parents and girls can grow from their individual and shared traumas. The groups focused on the different stages of change, and how the parents and girls work through their challenges during their therapeutic journey. The girls were able to spend time with their families out in the community seeing the sights of Northern Utah, and strengthening their family bonds. Familes found the weekend successful as they grew together and healed together.
