Nonviolent Communication Workshop: Creating More Joyful Spaces

At this evening workshop presented by ANCA’s Adirondack Diversity Initiative in partnership with SUNY Canton, SUNY Potsdam and Paul Smith’s College, attendees will learn about the technology of nonviolent communication.

We will anchor our learning in a dialogue framework. Everyone who chooses to join us has a story, and those stories offer significant opportunities for us to learn from one another. Our ability to learn from one another begins by understanding how to encourage spaces of vulnerability. Participants will learn how to make non judgemental observations, expand our vocabularies around feelings, needs, and make requests of one another to get our needs met without resorting to violence.
