Join us for our annual conference, Stronger Together: Advancing Care, Connection & Hope. Attend virtually from anywhere or join an in-person watch party hosted in communities across the United States.

This full-day program will explore the latest research and evidence-informed approaches to BPD, with a focus on turning knowledge into meaningful change—in clinical care, family relationships, and everyday interactions. You’ll hear from leading experts across mentalization, validation, skills-based interventions, neuroscience, couples work, and more, alongside the voices and experiences of people with lived experience and family members.

Featured speakers include Alan Fruzzetti, Marie-Paule de Valdivia, Christella Dwyer, John Mader, Anthony Ruocco, and others.

Presented in collaboration with Yale School of Medicine, Yale-New Haven Psychiatric Hospital, Yale Instruction/Investigation/Intervention in Emotional Lability and Dysregulation (YIELD), and other collaborating organizations, our annual conference brings together researchers, clinicians, people with lived experience, and family members to learn from one another and advance better care, stronger connections, and greater hope for the BPD community.
