We are dedicated to sharing practices and skills for effective and meaningful communication which includes deep listening, compassion, and collaboration. We are passionate about supporting dialogues across sensitive and important topics without doing harm to one another in the process. We integrate NVC with anti-racist and anti-oppression practices.
