Bryte and Broderick Community Institute Conversation
Join us on December 12!
We will meet to have further conversation about how each of the participants at the first two trainings have applied the training content, and/or when and where it has been difficult and challenging. Our hope is to have some coffee and conversations to support each other in our community efforts, to continue getting to know one another and have some fun! We will also spend some time planning the topics for the Spring Institute workshops. We will meet on Saturday, Dec. 12 at 9 am at the La Bou in West Sacramento, 849 Jefferson Boulevard. If you can, let us know if you can join us so we can be best prepared. Feel free to bring a friend or neighbor.
