To create the change needed to ensure all people have a home, we need skilled leaders who are able to build meaningful relationships with decision makers, hold power and act effectively in the public arena. This three-part virtual workshop focuses on how we understand and use power to address issues of homelessness; ways to act on individual and congregational interest; how to build powerful public relationships; tools to plan and act strategically; and how to participate in actions and campaigns that channel power and build the capacity of leaders, congregations and the collaborative.

This workshop is composed of three virtual sessions:
1. Sunday, December 12 from 3-8:30 p.m.
2. Monday, December 13 from 4-8:30 p.m.
3. Tuesday, December 14 from 4-8:30 p.m.

Please attend all three sessions to experience the full training and be sure to register by Tuesday, December 7.

This virtual retreat will have closed captioning available. For more information about our safety and accessibility practices, please click here.

We ask participants to share in the cost of this workshop and suggest $50 per person. Congregations may also wish to cover costs to invest in the leadership of their members. We don’t want cost to be a barrier for anyone to attend, so please contact Deb Rodgers about a scholarship if needed.

Core training for Beacon Leadership Team members, key leaders, clergy and faith leaders in Beacon congregations. We recommend six months’ experience with Beacon or with your congregation’s leadership team before attending this workshop.
