The Families and Politics workshop teaches participants how to preserve family bonds while staying true to their values and political beliefs. Although the focus is on family relationships, you can use these strategies with any loved one. You’ll have some fun in this workshop – it won’t be all serious. After all, we all come from quirky families.
Goals
● Insight into why family differences over politics are uniquely challenging
● Recognition of common roles that family members play in political conversations
● Strategies and skills for handling family political differences in a constructive way
This workshop is open to everyone who struggles over political differences with a loved one. You will learn about the family dynamics of political differences, apply them to your family, and learn and practice effective communication skills with difficult family members.
