who we serve

Center for Council programs guide individuals in engaging and building community. We provide ongoing trainings for businesses, schools, community-based organizations, law enforcement and healthcare agencies. We also provide customized programs in correctional settings, government agencies and post-graduate medical education.

Whether offered as an intimate practice among friends and family or implemented organizationally, council offers a replicable, self-perpetuating platform that diffuses tension, fosters resilience, and creates a deeper sense of community and connection anywhere.

We envision a world in which every voice is heard, no one is invisible, and everyone has the opportunity to
​connect to community.

Center for Council is a non-profit organization dedicated to creating a more compassionate society for all.
Join our circle to learn about the council practice, get involved with our work, and connect with our community!
