These sessions include:
Difficult Conversations: Understanding Who We Are in Relationships During difficult conversations and emotionally charged situations, we often make an attribution about another person's intentions based on the impact of their actions on us and the traumatic reminders that we often experience. These traumatic reminders lead to feelings of being hurt, slighted, and angry. In this session, participants will learn tips and tools to take a more reflective stance when having difficult conversations. This approach will assist participants in recognizing their internal feelings and triggers while responding to others with more compassion and curiosity. Trainer: Harleen Hutchinson, PSY.D., IMH-E |

-How we enter collaborative relationships
-Moving beyond our role as 'experts' to co-learners
-Re-framing community partners in asset-based terms
-Recentering community wellbeing in developing our "why"
-Building trusting community
