One Community, Many Roles, One Mission – Building Bridges for Resource Families

It is my pleasure to invite you to join us for the 50th Annual Pennsylvania State Resource Family Association Conference, taking place October 22–23, 2026, at the Penn Harris Hotel in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. This year’s conference marks an incredible milestone: 50 years of bringing together resource families, child welfare professionals, and community partners from across the Commonwealth.

Our 2026 theme, One Community, Many Roles, One Mission – Building Bridges for Resource Families, celebrates the unique role each of us plays in supporting children and families. Whether you are a caregiver, caseworker, advocate, trainer, or community partner, your dedication helps strengthen the network of support that changes lives every day.

This conference is more than a training event; it’s an opportunity to learn, connect, and grow together. Throughout the two-day event, you’ll participate in engaging workshops, earn valuable training hours, hear from inspiring presenters, discover helpful resources, exchange ideas with families and professionals from across Pennsylvania, and build relationships that continue long after the conference concludes.

As we celebrate this special anniversary, we’re especially excited to welcome outstanding presenters who will share practical knowledge, encouragement, and real-world experience to support those caring for children and youth. Whether you’re looking for new strategies, fresh perspectives, or simply the opportunity to reconnect with others who understand this journey, we hope you’ll leave feeling inspired and supported.

We’re also proud to continue one of our favorite conference traditions, the Thursday evening Silent Auction, benefiting the PSRFA Scholarship Fund. Every bid helps create educational opportunities for youth connected to resource families, making your participation an investment in their future.

Whether you’re attending for the first time or returning as part of the PSRFA family, thank you for being part of this remarkable community. Together, we will continue building bridges, sharing knowledge, strengthening families, and ensuring that children across Pennsylvania have the support they deserve.

I look forward to welcoming you to Camp Hill this October!
