The Leaven Center, a retreat and study center in Lyons, offers the following events:

Doing Our Own Work: A Seminar for Anti-Racist White People, a program of Allies for Change. 

October 14-17 and December 2-5
A unique context for white people who seek to deepen their commitment to confronting and challenging racism. Doing Our Own Work equips white people with the analysis, skills, and tools needed to be more effective anti-racist allies with people of color and to help bring about institutional change. 

Journey Toward an Undivided Life: An Introductory Circle of Trust® Retreat, with Valerie Brown

October 21-23 
The complex demands of living require skill and compassion.  Yet too often in the daily intensity of our work we may neglect the source of our stamina, inspiration, and commitment, our inner selves, that which aligns our deepest values with the work we do. Grounded in the principles of Parker J. Palmer's book, A Hidden Wholeness, participants examine the impact of reflective leadership on the creation of trusting, responsive relationships, emphasizing the connection between our work and inner values and integrity.
