On Sunday, June 14th, this team gathered around the oak tree behind the Compass Cafe, facilitators listed above organized and executed a forum meant to discuss current social issues and events. The purpose was to continue to develop the relationships within our unit by displaying compassion, empathy, and understanding towards one another during trying times. The event began at 12:00 and lasted until 14:00.
“The best thing we can do for one another is to listen to each other. This forum was successful in that we took the time to create a comfortable environment for the sole purpose of listening without judgment. Although we have come a long way, we still have a long way to go. Our goal of developing an atmosphere of respectful communication regardless of discriminatory factors is within our grasp.”
