About this Event

Family relationships can become casualties of a toxic political environment. Family members are having bitter political arguments, avoiding each other, or even cutting off lifetime relationships.

Polarizing conversations can occur even without specific policy issues. This event aims to build skills that help prevent tense conversations from becoming arguments. This event is an adaptation of “Depolarizing Within” but without the political party references. This event teaches the “LAPP Skills”: Listen, Acknowledge, Pivot, and Perspective, using non-partisan examples.

*Tickets are Free, Donations Help support Braver Angels, 501(c)3.
