Description
While Harborside Chats have wrapped up, the Dialogue Project is just getting started with important work ahead! We’re excited to launch a series of community empowerment sessions, where we’ll provide a range of tools and insights from community leaders across various partner agencies. These sessions will offer informational resources, a supportive place to learn, connect, and more. The first in the series is the Electorate First Aid, happening on October 16th from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm (doors open at 5:00 pm) in the tulalW Building of Grays Harbor College. We’ll explore our “First Aid Kit” for navigating the emotional challenges that can arise during election-related discussions. This session will be held in person, is free to attend, and dinner snacks will be provided - we’re excited to feature savory snacks from Aloha Alabama BBQ! Local library experts will explain how algorithms shape the information you encounter and will teach on how your library can empower you with resources to stay informed and engaged Dr. Bre will provide strategies for managing emotional stress in divisive discussions Dawn from the DRC will teach practical techniques for handling interpersonal conflict. Gain valuable tools to build understanding, communicate effectively, and stay calm under pressure. These sessions are free and registration is not required, but encouraged, as it helps us plan and helps expedite your check-in.
