A Mid Year Update of Your Donations Supporting Circle Practice
It’s exciting.
In 2018, eleven individuals have received grants totaling $6,600 USD to attend either The Circle Way Training, or programs that use The Circle Way process — people in Australia, Canada, Europe, and the US.
This year The Circle Way launched a grant category called ‘New Initiatives’. Three grants totaling $7,200 USD have been awarded to support:
- Empowering Women — a nine-month training program designed to help women find their power and step into leadership roles. The Circle Way training is an integral part of the course.
- Cultivating Conscious Parents — a program of local circles helping parents learn, reflect, and build a better world for our children with emphasis on reducing teen suicide.
- Promoting Decolonizing Awareness — a training to further apply The Circle Way for teams of indigenous and non-indigenous facilitators to lead a newly developed game teaching decolonizing practices.

Please continue to contribute, connect, and imagine.
With continued focus to further grow a diverse inter-generational community of circle practitioners who work to promote racial, gender, ethnic, economic and environmental justice in our organizations and communities.
