Home, Family, and Personal Enrichment Meetings*

When planning home, family, and personal enrichment meetings, leaders should carefully assess the needs of the sisters and counsel with priesthood leaders. When applicable, make certain these meetings include classes that help develop skills in parenting and family relations. The Family Guidebook (item no. 31180) and Marriage and Family Relations Instructor’s Manual (item no. 35865) may be used as resources. These are available through Church distribution centers.
