Family Re-Union
Family Re-Union was a series of conferences and a family policy initiative hosted by former Vice President of the United States Al Gore and second lady Tipper Gore, in Nashville, Tennessee.[1][2] Launched in 1992 and continuing until 2008,[3] its goal was to strengthen family life in America by bringing together families, experts, and policymakers to address critical issues like work-life balance, education, and healthcare.[4]
There were thirteen conferences in total.[3] The sixth Family Re-Union conference occurred on June 25, 1997, at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.[5] President Bill Clinton gave remarks at the seventh conference on June 22, 1998.[2] Bill Purcell also appeared at a conference.[6]
