Our offerings provide opportunities to reflect together on our concerns about our economy, and action we can take to grow hopeful movements. This can feel hard and overwhelming, but we can be strengthened in this important work by reflecting on our values, and exploring the way these values lead us and others to action.
We offer:
Practices and resources that help ground us in values that can inspire and sustain us: connection and gratitude.
