You’ve attended a council training, online or in-person, and you’re itching to practice your skills and brainstorm with others. This is a place to find the newly-trained as well as council veterans; a place where certified trainers can witness the creative ways you’re applying your skills, and offer yet more perspective on how to hold the practice. Come tell your war stories of falling on your face. Hold a response council to hear how others have made it through when council goes off the rails. Try out new forms, brainstorm new prompts, practice your co-facilitation skills with diverse partners. This is your space! Use it to build your confidence, then go out into your world, find your people and form your circles!

The nominal annual membership fee of $50 will be returned to the community via social justice organizations and food banks, or international relief agencies. Certified trainers may register free of charge and visit at any time. (If you’re not sure whether you’re a trainer or a participant, you’re a participant.) Register at www.councilheart.com/register or email kate@lipkis.com with your questions.
