Join this community workshop hosted by the City of Falls Church Human Services Advisory Council.

Moving toward a more equitable, inclusive future, in the wake of conflicts over racial, cultural and lifestyle differences, this workshop is designed to help City of Falls Church community members and those who work in the City grow in a more collaborative environment.

We will learn and practice through a professional facilitator how to comfortably discuss equity and race issues, facts vs. feelings, misunderstandings, and potential change.

The goal is that everyone will feel understood and accepted and that we move forward, even when we sometimes must forge compromises.

Facilitated by Juliette Shedd, PhD, Associate Dean, Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution, Associate Professor of Conflict Analysis and Resolution.
