​
Family relationships are becoming casualties of our toxic political environment. Family members are having nasty political arguments, avoiding each other, or even cutting off lifetime relationships. If you want to preserve important family bonds while still being true to your values and political beliefs, this workshop will offer you:
-
Insight into why family differences over politics are uniquely challenging
-
Recognition of common roles that family members play in political conversations (for example, the Gladiator, the Defender, and the Sniper)
-
Strategies and skills for handling family political differences in a constructive way
Although the focus is on family relationships, you can use the skills from this workshop with any loved one.
​
You’ll laugh and have some fun in this workshop—it won’t be all serious. After all, we all come from quirky families.
*****Light refreshments will be served!*****
Before the workshop, participants may review the online module: "Braver Angels Families and Politics" eLearning course. It can be accessed via this LINK. It only takes about 40 minutes to complete--and it's fun!
