<p>I just signed up for this NVC Boston class (details below) and I encourage you to join me. I think it would be really helpful and supportive if activists and
organizers had common language for how to discuss conflict in our
relationships and friendships.</p>

<p>Would you like more understanding and closeness in your
relationships? In this workshop you will learn how to strengthen your
capacity to hear the other's point of view, while still expressing your
needs in a way that creates connection rather than conflict. Through
games, exercises and guided role-play, learn how to create more
understanding and trust with partners, family, co-workers, and friends.
Cambridge, MA at the Friend's Meeting House. Early Registration discount
ends on March 24.</p>
<p><em>“One of the most important aspects of relationships that thrive
is the ability to successfully communicate and resolve conflicts. Skills
to achieve this are learnable by all...learning these skills, however,
requires dedication and willingness to shift fundamental ways of
relating to self and others.” -- Being Genuine, Thomas D’ansembourg</em></p>
