Description

As more and more of us share our stories and begin to normalize polyamory, we need people like Heath Schechinger to work systemically to shift policies, laws and societal structures to support the NEW modern family. I was lit up after this conversation with Heath, and share the vision he described at the end of the podcast!

Please take a few minutes to check out some of the advocacy work he is doing, and see if you are called to jump on board any of the initiatives!

Dr. Heath Schechinger is an internationally recognized therapist, researcher, and consultant, known for his groundbreaking work within the realm of family and relationship diversity.
As Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Modern Family Institute, and Founding Co-Chair of the Committee on Consensual Non-monogamy housed in the LGBTQ Division of the American Psychological Association, Dr. Schechinger has dedicated over a decade to studying the dynamics of both monogamous and non-monogamous relationship dynamics.
He is also Co-Founder of the Polyamory Legal Advocacy Coalition and Affiliate Faculty at the renowned Kinsey Institute at Indiana University.
Dr. Schechinger's work serves as a catalyst for both academic discourse and practical support, with his initiatives paving the way for a more nuanced understanding of what constitutes a healthy, fulfilling relationship in contemporary society.
