At the meeting. In the hallway. Sitting in the bleachers next to another parent. This is where perspectives can be shifted. Equipping coalition/team/community members with skills to effectively facilitate these conversations without raising defensiveness provides a significant impact. In these skill-building workshops, Jason will introduce the Science of the Positive Frameworks Seven Core Principles which is the foundation of this training while providing examples of the advantages of this communication style versus other approaches.
