Please join us on Saturday, February 8th at 1pm Eastern, in-person at the commUnity center or virtually via Zoom, to hear Amy Makice, Bloomington Center for Connection, discuss disruptive empathy.
In a world of growing tension, how can we stay connected to those who see the world differently, while still advocating for care? Relational-Cultural Theory (RCT) offers a framework for fostering relationships through growth and possibility.
Join us for an engaging presentation exploring Maureen Walker's concept of Disruptive Empathy, a powerful tool for creating understanding and connection across deep divides.
We'll cover:
*A brief history of Relational-Cultural Theory: How it redefines growth through connection.
*Disruptive Empathy: What it is and how it challenges disconnection.
*Tools for engaging with reluctant support among family and community members
This event is designed for queer individuals and allies seeking compassionate, practical ways to navigate difficult conversations with loved ones or community members.
Please reach out to @Judi Epp at [email protected] for more information or to get the Zoom login information.
