Branching Out: Peer Support Session
Thursday, May 16th | 1:30 – 3:00pm
A primary goal of the Branching Out series is to facilitate relationship-building between collaboratives across Colorado, so they can share stories and learn from one another. We also envision Branching Out as a space for people to share current challenges they are facing and seek advice from folks who ‘get it’. In this presentation-free session, we invite you to bring both your challenges and your wisdom to the table; we’ll engage in several activities designed to facilitate shared learning and problem-solving.
