The Polly Caskie Research Fund
The Polly Caskie Memorial Research Fund was established in 2001
by the Florida Family Research Network to honor Dr. Caskie and
her contributions to the development of Bowen theory and its applications.
Polly was a founding member and president of the Florida Network
from 1995 to 2001. Her colleagues made an initial investment to
begin the fund to recognize her achievements and to provide the
opportunity for others to further the legacy of her inquiring
mind and hard work.
An annual award of $1,000 to support an important research effort
in Bowen theory is made each year. The Florida Family Research
Network has asked the Bowen Center for the Study of the Family
to administer the fund.
The Bowen Center is pleased to have the opportunity to honor
Polly in this way. The Caskie Research Fund serves as a tribute
to Polly and as an investment in the future of Bowen theory. The
awards are funded by donations from those interested in contributing
to research that will develop and extend Bowen theory and its
applications. To contribute to the fund, please contact Ruth Sagar
rrsagar@thebowencenter.org.
