As a companion to the Foundation's earlier news release on October 14, 2021, this release represents the second helping of the October 2021 issue of OUTLOOK, its 14th issue and largest semi-annual edition.

Learn through this edition about the new program to help develop champions of change in communities that have traditionally been marginalized and where IFS has been traditionally inaccessible.

And be moved and inspired by a collection of personal stories of transformation that individuals from various backgrounds, with different experiences, and in different settings are sharing.

This issue gies an overview of the successful series of online dialogues, A Bridge Between US; introduces the new section from the IFS Library... and it commemorates through a heartfelt tribute the now sadly departed Foundation’s Chair Emeritus, Harley Goldberg, DO.

And as has been the practice, OUTLOOK also features IFS trainers and Foundation donors...
