Benefits of Large and Small Family Gatherings
By Oscar Ramirez

Family reunions are summer traditions for many families, which is why July is National Family Reunion Month. It’s a time when relatives reconnect with each other and welcome new family members. A family reunion is a celebration of love and connection. After several years of isolation due to COVID-19, reconnecting with family has never been more important.
Studies show family gatherings positively impact the physical, mental and emotional well-being of all family members, especially children. From a simple
afternoon get-together to a weekend getaway, family reunions strengthen bonds and relationships.
But families don’t need a large event to meet. A gathering as small as a family meal is known to promote stability and encourage attachment. Building connections and security are vital to a child’s development. Make spending time together as a family a priority.
