Dear Friends and fellow Peacemakers, Join us for a special weekend training: Council Process: Speaking and Listening from the Heart. On Sunday, March 25 and Sunday, March 26, Bonnie Mennell and Paul LeVasseur will bring the Council Process to the Maezumi Institute in Montague. The Council process encourages community building, conflict exploration and resolution, the sharing of personal and cultural stories, and collective decision-making in a supportive and compassionate environment. This introductory training will cover the basic elements of the Council process and Council leadership. The training will address the particular interests of the participants and the contexts in which they wish to integrate Council processes. Council is used in intentional and spiritual communities, public and private schools, universities, therapeutic settings, non-profit and business organizations, families and partnerships throughout the country and abroad. Council is a great ally in introducing meaningful change in our schools, businesses, communities and family relationships. Bonnie Mennell and Paul LeVasseur are the East Coast trainers with the Center for Council Training/The Ojai Foundation based in Los Angeles & Ojai, California. They are also faculty members at the School for International Training in Brattleboro, Vermont, where they have been working in the field of group dynamics and community building for over 30 years. Please contact me for program registration. For more information on the workshop, please click on this 0000,0000,EEEEofficial event website link. I hope you can join us!
