Let's Connect.
As 2026 gets underway, many of us are feeling the strain of a challenging start to the year. Connection and community matter—especially for those of us who spend our days holding space for others. In response, NWAPS is launching Members Connect, a new initiative designed to foster informal, meaningful connection among members.
Members Connect invites NWAPS members to host small, in person gatherings centered around shared interests, activities, or simple companionship. These gatherings are intentionally low pressure and member led, offering opportunities to connect outside of formal programming.
Do you have a hobby you enjoy, a favorite activity, or an interest in bringing therapists together in a relaxed setting? We would love to support you in hosting a Members Connect gathering.
If you're interested in hosting, please fill out the form below with the details of your event. NWAPS will share the information on our listserv. Hosts will manage their own events, including RSVPs and communication with participants.
Some gathering ideas include:
- Morning tea or coffee
- A walk around Green Lake
- Coffee or tea tasting
- Book group
- Supper club
- Hiking
- Knitting or craft circle
- Sunday brunch
- Movie viewing or discussion
We hope this initiative creates space for ease, curiosity, and connection within our community.
