Finding “Home” is a multi-vocal presentation that explores where and what home is with Hmong, military Veterans, older adults, and other groups. The workshop brings together academics and community members to discuss the idea of “home” and its meaning within our work. Specifically, the term “home” can be interpreted and expanded to include the architecture, infrastructure, social systems, and cultural landscapes which become crucial in how we develop as healthy individuals, groups, and communities.
