Speaking Across Conflict – A Resetting the Table Workshop

Resetting the Table originally launched to tackle conversations around Israel/Palestine, and later expanded to American political division. Their background is Jewish and their approach is drawn from Jewish principles while being grounded in sociological research and best practices.

RTT’s Speaking Across Conflict Workshop (SAC) offers communication skill-building for charged political conversations and a forum for dialogue across disagreement. Participants will exchange views and personal experiences, surface differences and commonalities, and practice communication skills for addressing differences directly and constructively. The workshop builds community capacity to explore disagreements while strengthening relationships, trust, learning, and collaboration.

Jconnect Director Ashley Pratt is a Resetting the Table fellow and has trained to facilitate this workshop for our community. In partnership with Kibbutz Darom and Moishe House Seattle, we will be offering a Speaking Across Conflict workshop on religious pluralism in the Jewish community. Participants will experience meaningful communication with each other and will also be equipped with skills that they can take into other difficult conversations in "real life."

Places are limited, so please RSVP below.
