Are y’all ready to get grounded, get connected and get started?!

UUCC is hosting an in-depth training for our congregation and wider community. The workshop will be led by Jennifer Hofmann, a renowned movement builder who regularly inspires and mobilizes over 50,000 activists all over the world.

This workshop is a chance for us to be together as we ground ourselves in the very necessary work ahead. We believe being grounded, skillful, and strategic is crucially important for us as a faith community and as people who care about this country.
