In this episode I sit down with community organizer, artist, and scholar, Lily Lamboy, who is also the Co-Founder and Managing Director of The Modern Family Institute, a nonprofit that researches and advocates for diverse family and relationship structures. We dive into what a "modern family" is today and how current legislation, systems, structures, and research are not accurately reflecting and supporting the non-nuclear families that are abundant and growing in our society.
Lily shares insights on how we can rethink family and community care, the challenges we're facing with the nuclear family model driving so much in our culture, how we can create our own unique family structures, and examples of what non-nuclear families might look like in today's world... plus a whole lot more!
**This episode was recorded on March 25, 2024 and since the recording, two very exciting pieces of legislation have been passed in the Bay Area supporting these initiatives. You can read more about legal protections passed in Berkeley and Oakland at the articles here and here.
