ANNUAL APPEAL 2024 As we approach the end of another remarkable year, we at the Cincinnati Psychoanalytic Institute (CPI) want to take a moment to reflect on our journey and express our heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support. Last year, we celebrated our 50th anniversary with a gathering that brought together over 150 supporters, faculty, alumni, and students. The event featured an engaging panel discussion that highlighted CPI’s rich history and our bright future, culminating in a beautiful evening concert by the renowned pianist and psychiatrist, Dr. Richard Kogan. This celebration was especially meaningful as it marked a renewal of community and connection after the isolation many faced during the Covid pandemic. CPI remains dedicated to providing comprehensive training programs in psychotherapy and psychoanalysis for adults, children, and adolescents. We offer a variety of workshops, presentations, and seminars designed for clinicians and scholars interested in psychoanalytic ideas. Thanks to advancements in technology, we have expanded our reach, welcoming students from across the country and even internationally—from regions including Wisconsin, Minnesota, Florida, New York, China, and Israel. This year, we are proud to train 33 students and candidates, one of the largest cohorts in our history. The generous gifts from supporters like you have made these initiatives possible. Your contributions have been particularly vital as we adapted to remote learning during the pandemic, enabling us to continue our mission and enhance our virtual operations. With your ongoing support, we can continue to train the next generation of psychodynamic mental health professionals and extend our impact across the region and beyond. As we look ahead to 2025, we welcome your thoughts on how we can further expand our efforts and make an even greater impact. Your insights are invaluable to us, and we are eager to hear from you. We are also pleased to share a special opportunity for contributions this year. If you wish to honor someone meaningful in your life with a gift to advance psychoanalytic education, we will send a personalized note to that individual, notifying them of your generous donation in their honor. We also are attaching a Wish List of items that we are accepting donations for. Donations can be made by check or credit card.
