We welcome Kate Gillespie & Ben Brubaker from Luminescence Counseling and Consulting for a repeat of their September workshop exploring techniques that can help us continue to offer radical hospitality in a safe way. This in-person workshop – which comes highly recommended by those who attended in September – is completely free of charge. Due to its anticipated popularity, advance registration is required.

De-escalation training provides an overview of skills & assessment tools to help front-line workers connect with those in crisis, maintain personal safety, and recognize when someone might need a higher level of care. The training focuses on a person-centered model rooted in the belief that each person deserves respect and dignity, regardless of their situation. Our role is to be available to help out where we can, with the least intervention necessary to facilitate a healthy and safe environment for everyone.
