SUPPORTING THE HOUSELESS:

APRIL 27, 2021 | Community Conversation Part 2

Passionate about supporting Louisville's houseless neighbors?  Join us for our second action conversation.  Participants will have an opportunity for collaborative conversation around specific areas of interest (i.e. advocacy/policy, food, tiny house/transitional housing, and religious leaders).   

APRIL 7, 2021 | A Community-Wide Action Conversation Part 1

How can we individually and collectively support our houseless brothers and sisters, especially in the face of the possibility of clear the camps where they live?  We will spend the first part of the online gathering hearing from grassroots and organizational stakeholders, and the second part, in smaller self-organizing action groups around specific ways we can be supportive of our houseless neighbors, both now and in the future.  If you have a heart for this population and want to take action join us for this conversation.

Join us and create a circle of dreamers of all faiths embracing dream wisdom as a path to healing and peace. Dreams, harbingers of the night, guide us as we seek answers to our own concerns and the needs of our communities and congregants. The Dream Circle emphasizes the educational rather than the psychological aspects of dreams, the transformational rather than the therapeutic, and the sacred rather than the scientific.   SESSIONS:  1) Dreams of Healing and Peace We’ve Dreamt—present, past/recurring | 2) Dreams of Healing Self, Others | 3) Dreams of Healing Community | 4) Dreams of Healing World-wide 

PRESENTED BY: Jewish Association of Spirituality and Dreams (JASD), and led by co-founders Gaylia R. Rooks, Rabbi Emerita of The Temple in Louisville, and journalist Joyce Lynn, author of "Dreams and the Wisdom Within." 

Integral Life and Leadership offers a multi-dimensional perspective on how integrative frameworks and practice can enhance the evolution of consciousness, relationships, and leadership in social transformation. This course combines the Eastern disciplines for cultivating higher states of consciousness with the Western psychological insights for cultivating higher stages of consciousness. Employing the work of Ken Wilber, it offers a comprehensive framework for understanding ourselves and the world.  Participants will learn the integral vision and frameworks and then apply them to developing their own integral life practice plan, romantic relationship, and leadership capacity for social change.  

SESSIONS:  1) The Integral Vision: Overview of Integral Frameworks and Integral Life Practice | 2) Integral Romantic Relationships: Maps For Cultivating Transformative Partnerships | 3) Integral Politics and Economics: What is the Next Evolutionary Iteration for Louisville? | 4) Integral City: Cultivating The Beloved Community
