We believe that RLT is a vital tool for our culture, our communities, and the human race. We plan to lean in when it may be uncomfortable, to ask hard questions, and adapt to meet the world and individuals we intend to serve. And to do so skillfully.  The Relational Life Foundation is committed to creating a culture of belonging for all. 

Deran Young and her team of professional DEIB specialists will provide extensive training to both Relational Life Foundation and Relational Life Institute leadership, staff, and faculty to ensure we provide a truly welcoming and inclusive environment for everyone who comes through our doors. These consultants will also advise us as we implement programming, to ensure we are being extremely thoughtful and acting with intention.

As part of this partnership, the entire Relational Life Community will be offered an in-depth diversity training series through our Community Conversation Series, led by Deran and joined by expert panelists.

We will be hosting an RLT Relationship Bootcamp in the D.C. Metro Area specifically for Black Therapists Rock Members on October 14-15, 2023. Registration details to come.

Together with Black Therapists Rock we will work towards more skillfully advancing our mission of bringing RLT tools and support to a diverse range of financially and socially disadvantaged populations. 


Our work includes:

• Rolling out multiple In-Person Relationship Bootcamp workshops across the country specifically for under-resourced communities at a sliding scale rate they can afford.
• Generating diverse speakers and themes for our quarterly Community Conversation Series, discussions featuring RLT as it relates to topics of Justice, Equity, Diversion and Inclusion. (Have a great idea for one? Or want to host one yourself? Let us know!)
• Expanding the network of RLT therapists utilizing our Scholarship Application Program, designed for socially and financially underprivileged minority therapists and coaches to receive RLT practitioner certification.

• Attend our Community Conversation Series and join us in learning from Deran Young and her team of experts
