Introduction to Talking Circles for Building Community Trust and Peace

This 2-hour online training teaches the basic philosophy, principles, vocabulary, and practices of the Indigenous talking circle process for virtual and in-person applications. Since ancient times many Indigenous communities have utilized the talking circle process for community building, decision-making, problem-solving, and conflict transformation. It is designed for those wanting to work with others to build trust and peace within their spheres of influence. This training is for everyone: laypeople, paraprofessionals, and licensed professionals. Everyone from everywhere is welcome to join us.
​
For licensed Minnesota social workers, teachers, and nurses who want 2 hours of continuing education (CE) for Intro to Talking Circles, choose the registration option that includes the $50 tuition + $25 CE fee. If you're a social worker, nurse, or teacher licensed in another state, please contact your state's professional board to determine if they have a reciprocal CE relationship with Minnesota.
