What folks are saying:
“Very well facilitated. Insightful. Session provided practical tips and tools to take back and begin this work, as well as conceptual and long-term strategies that were really helpful to reflect on for future planning.”
“Through our conversations leading up to yesterday, it is now apparent how much you were listening to who we are and what we strive to be. You have helped make our community stronger and we are very grateful.”
“Love the open conversations that we were able to engage in. I also love how you brought the important conversations and made it relevant for CAMP.”
…but wait, there’s more! :)
The work listed above represents the collaboration between Chanika and Lance, but they also have independent projects that may be of interest as well. Feel free to get in touch with them if you want more details and information. It should come as no surprise that they’re always game for a good conversation!
