The 30th Anniversary of the Warm Springs Workshop will convene at the rural conference facilities of the Roosevelt Warm Springs Institute for Rehabilitation in Warm Springs, Georgia.Begun in 1987 just a week or so after the death of Carl Rogers, this workshop has met in this rustic center for 25 years. Participants from around the world have an opportunity to engage each other in a non-structured experiential community that strives to sustain a milieu infused with the Rogerian attitudinal conditions of empathy, unconditional positive regard and congruence (i.e. the common factors for therapeutic change).
The Center was the second residence of the administration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The “Little White House” nearby housed President Roosevelt six months of each year.

Warm Springs Directions & Telephone Numbers
From Atlanta and the Atlanta airport take I-85 South towards Montgomery, Ala. Exit just below Newnan on Highway 27A (Exit 41) and proceed South. Roosevelt Warm Springs is 32 miles South of Exit 41 on the right just before you get into Warm Springs. Driving time: 1 plus hours.
After entering Warm Springs, on the right will be a sign for the Roosevelt Rehabilitation Center. When you enter, veer right until the dead end road turns left. Follow that road to the lake and enter the road around the lake. That will take you to Callaway Lodge.
(P.S. In Warm Springs but still on the same highway, if you get to the first traffic light in town without seeing the Roosevelt Rehabilitation Center sign, then you have gone too far. Backtrack a half block or so.)
The direct phone number to the main lodge is:
Callaway Lodge - (706) 655-5691 Most meetings are held here.
Jerold 's cell phone is (706) 540-9136. He cannot receive voice mail in the Warm Springs vicinity even though they are recorded. So keep calling if necessary.
