New Guidelines for Avanta Institutes
–
Michael T. Callaghan
In response to concerns from members and others the Board has decided to simplify the process for forming a Satir Institute. There will also no longer be a distinction between the status of the current Institutes and Affiliates and all will be linked to Avanta. For your information the Board resolutions and revised guidelines are reprinted here.
The Board passed the following three resolutions:
-
That the process for becoming a Satir Institute be simplified and the distinction between Affiliates and Institutes be dropped.
-
That the use of the Satir name is granted initially for a period of two years by the Avanta Board or Executive Director to those who want to set up a not-for-profit legal entity. Three letters of support from Avanta members are required. If no progress is made in forming the legal entity after two years, permission to use the name is withdrawn.
-
That the guidelines for Institutes be re-written to reflect the above.
