Passing this along from NCDD
Hi Friends,?
?
We find ourselves in unprecedented times. I hope you are all healthy and hanging in there.?

NCDD has been working quickly to offer some opportunities for folks in our network to connect, as we have much to share and think about together right now. One such offering will take place next Wednesday, March 25 from 1-3 PM Eastern/10 AM-Noon Pacific. We will be hosting a virtual Conversation Cafe via Zoom to allow folks to come together to share how they are feeling and thinking in these tough times, as well as explore what we might do next.?
?
This is an exciting opportunity to see Conversation Cafe used in a virtual format. Susan Partnow, one of the creators of the process, and I have been working on developing materials to help you host your own, and we will share these out soon as well.?

Announcing a Virtual Conversation Cafe about COVID-19

Posted by???|??March 19th, 2020??|?

Friends, the desire for connection and thinking together is overwhelming in this time of physical distancing. NCDD, along with our member and dear friend Susan Partnow, have decided to offer another opportunity for our network to come together in dialogue to support us all during this time.?Next Wednesday, March 25th from 1:00-3:00 PM Eastern/10:00 AM-Noon Pacific, we will hold a virtual Conversation Cafe ¨C all are welcome!??to join us.

This Cafe is intended as an opportunity for us to connect around how we are feeling and what we are thinking at this time, as well as exploring what we do next. We hope this will help build community among us in this difficult time, as well as help generate ideas for what we might do individually and collectively.

It will also be an opportunity for you to experience??in an online format. This model is an elegantly simple process for bringing people together in small group conversations to share, listen to one another, and deepen their understanding of one another and a topic. It was built for face-to-face conversations, but Susan and I have been experimenting with it online and are finding that it may be a great model to help people connect virtually during a time of distancing physically. We plan to share some materials for moving this to an online format in advance of the call!

If you want to participate,?!
