RESPECT Institute: Undergoing Reconstruction!

The RESPECT Institute of Missouri has been under the Foundation since 2021. Following the COVID-19 pandemic and re-staffing period in 2021-2022, we have been in full swing updating the entire program—from the logo to the content.

We graduated the first class under the Foundation last August, and we plan to create a schedule for coming years—following the reconstruction.

Within the next few months, you can expect our monthly RESPECT calls to resume and all the material to be updated for our next training session. We are very appreciative of your patience as we transition this program under the Foundation to be the best it can be for Missouri!

If you have any questions regarding the RESPECT Institute (RI), please contact our office at mmhf@missourimhf.org.
