Community Commitments

WE PRACTICE PEACE.

We believe in the goodness and kindness of others, allowing compassionate dialogue to unfold. We understand we cannot unite through opposition.

WE CULTIVATE A FRIENDLY FEELING TOWARD LEARNING.

We know that we will make mistakes, and those mistakes will lead us to profound growth and evolution. In order to understand our truest selves, we must exercise vulnerably and humbly acknowledge our identity as a work in progress.

WE CREATE SPACE.

We release control, expectations and judgements, entering shared environments and interactions with compassion and kindness.

WE ARE PRESENT.

We engage authentically with the experiences of our community, seeking to understand rather than to be understood, listening to connect rather than to respond.

WE TRUST THE PROCESS.

We understand that we rely on one another, trusting each individual’s own path and process as it unfolds.

WE COMMIT TO COMMUNITY.

We eagerly aid each other, through support, communication and connection.

WE SHOW UP.
