What's a Community Circle you ask? Come together with a group of folks from different backgrounds whom you may or may not know and share opinions experiences and thoughts in a structured discussion. The result can be quite powerful. This lovely group of students has been working hard becoming trained Circle facilitators. We will have four different circles during the resource Fair at Mather High School on October 28th. Please come and participate in a community Circle! Oh and bring somebody else too!
