The Group Assets Summer 2025 newsletter from the American Group Psychotherapy Association (AGPA) centers on the theme of generosity and its transformative impact on individuals and communities. In a featured essay, Maryetta Andrews-Sachs explores the meaning of generosity across cultures and traditions, emphasizing its vital role in fostering empathy, connection, and the mission of the Group Foundation. The issue highlights the Foundation’s work in advancing mental health through group therapy, including awarding over 200 scholarships this year to students, early-career professionals, and agency staff to attend AGPA Connect, supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, and funding evidence-based resources for clinicians. The newsletter also announces upcoming opportunities such as the Robert H. Klein Social Responsibility Award, the Humanitarian Award, and the Alonso Award for Excellence in Psychodynamic Group Theory, encouraging nominations and research submissions from the field. It recognizes the generosity of donors whose contributions sustain the Foundation’s scholarships, education grants, and community response programs, while honoring legacy and memorial gifts. The issue reinforces AGPA’s commitment to training more group therapists, expanding access to group therapy, and strengthening the healing power of groups, urging continued support through donations to ensure this work thrivesÂ
