About this event
Designing An Apology
Sorry we're open. The team at Now Accepting Apologies will lead a workshop on the communication strategies they have researched, learned, and practiced from leading experts and therapists around the U.S. This workshop will explore low-level harm in community, communication strategies, as well as a short discussion in community building from a restorative justice lens.
Now Accepting Apologies is a media project focused on storytelling and changing the culture surrounding accountability. It’s for anyone who has ever wondered deeply about responsibility, consequence, justice, and forgiveness. Learn more at NowAcceptingApologies.com
This workshop is open to anyone, including community builders, people who care about friendship, people who are sorry and would like to make amends, people interested in communication, bosses who want to be better leaders, anyone with an affinity for being a better friend, leader, or support to someone they love.
