SUMMARY:Changemaker Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Register to Join the Changemaker Retreat \nThe antidote to hopelessness isn’t working harder in isolation\, it is rooting deeper in community. \nReady to cultivate a just community that supports everyone? Join the M.K. Gandhi Institute August 7-10 for a four-day hands-on practice space centered on the Institute’s work in nonviolence education\, restorative practices\, racial justice\, and sustainability. \nIn a time of deep polarization and burnout\, making lasting change as a collective requires us to prioritize our relationships. We are coming together to deepen our strong connections\, fuel new ones\, and repair those that are eroding. By intentionally tending to ourselves and the ways we relate to one another\, we build the strength needed to create a better Rochester and truly care for our city. \nJust like Nonviolence\, this Retreat is not passive! It is a dedicated space to shut out the noise\, learn practical tools\, and connect with people who are committed to a better future. \nTogether we will:\n-Practice de-escalation skills for tense situations\n-Strengthen our communication skills to grow in times of deep division\n-Identify common ground and shared needs\n-Channel anger into constructive change and resistance\n-Discuss strategies for individual and collective self-care \nPricing: \nThe cost of the event is $850. We are offering an early bird price of $425 if you register before July 15th. \nBy purchasing a ticket\, you are directly investing in yourself and a nonviolent Rochester. If you are able\, please consider adding a donation to your ticket price to help support a scholarship fund for fellow community members experiencing economic hardship. \nRegister now and save your spot! \nQuestions about the retreat\, schedule\, or scholarships? Contact Katie at katie@gandhiinstitute.org. \n  \nRegister to Join the Changemaker Retreat
