Program Description

Event Details

Summary: With a focus on racial healing, this Facilitators’ Training is designed to show you how to create opportunities for people to experience personal and community growth through table talks, book clubs, and other similar gatherings.

Description: When people gather in conversation around a table, in a circle, or share a meal, they come together around a common experience. While facilitating these conversations you will have the language, tools, and methodologies to inspire an authentic dialogue, breaking down barriers while building trust and understanding. Your “guests” will focus not only on what they have experienced in common but how their lived experiences and world views may cause them to see things differently. Learn to host and facilitate these thought-provoking gatherings, inspire cross-cultural engagement, and help build bridges toward racial healing.

Seats in this interactive, virtual training are available on a first come, first served basis.
