UU Church of Flint is starting a new advisory circle on Non-violent Communication (NVC).
This communication system was created by Marshall Rosenberg as a response to the violence he experienced growing up in Detroit in the 1940’s. It emphasizes clear communication, empathy, and focusing on our own feelings and needs.
The purpose of the advisory circle will be to devise strategies for disseminating this information to the congregation, and also to create a safe space for group members to discuss and practice NVC principles.
The group will meet approximately two hours once a week and the first meeting will take place beginning in February.
The texts we will use are:
Non-violent Communication: A Language of Life by Marshall Rosenberg, PhD and
Non-violent Communication: A Companion Workbook by Lucy Leu.
