Join us! Oak Trees in a Storm: Growing our Skills for Generative Conflict 🗓️ August 3 and 10, 2022 9:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. PT /12:00 pm - 3:30 p.m. ET
An essential element in school crisis recovery and renewal is growing our skills to navigate repair when there has been rupture. Crisis is rupture, creates rupture, and thrives off of rupture. Leading school communities requires us to sit knowing how to navigate and move with harm, apology and conflict.
That’s why we’re thrilled to partner with the Radical Root Collective, an amazing team of facilitators, coaches, and data experts that each bring their unique magic together to support organizational healing and transformation. In this special two-part institute, we engage in deep learning, inquiry and strategy practice.

This summer, we focus specifically on boundaries for joy: ✨ How might boundaries inform and form our joy? ✨ What are we upholding by our abilities and inabilities to honor our needs?
