From Organizer and Trainer Caren Camblin

I’m excited to share with you that our NVCSC Fall Retreat ‘25 is coming up! Per tradition, this will be a “pay what you can” event, in alignment with our deeply cherished values of equity, inclusion, and accessibility.

You are invited to our October 10th-12th weekend of enriching and connecting workshops for beginners through more experienced practitioners. All levels are welcome and accommodated!

Here’s taste of what to expect:

FRIDAY 6:30-8:30 PM at The Resource Center for Nonviolence (downtown Santa Cruz)

Conflict Improv! Sit back and relax as your NVC Trainers roleplay your conflicts, sometimes hilariously, and always with tenderness and understanding. You can register for this event on its own, without attending the weekend workshops.

SATURDAY 9:30 AM - 5:30 PM at The Community Foundation (Aptos)
SUNDAY 9:45 AM - 4:45 PM at The Community Foundation (Aptos)

Over both days, we’ll offer:

A dedicated beginner’s track of 5 workshops with 4 different trainers to grasp the fundamentals, encounter NVC in a new way, or just get a refresher.

An experienced practitioner’s track of 4 workshops with 4 different trainers to deepen your practices of mediating for others, interrogating our stories, befriending our jackals, and self-connecting in times of strife.

Five more workshops open to all levels, spanning topics from parenting teens and relationships with adult children, dealing with our collective grief, feeling and expressing gratitude, mediating our own conflicts, and conflict improv for relationship repair.

For the Full Schedule, details on workshops, trainer bios, and most importantly, the registration link, go here

I can’t wait to practice with you.

Cheers!
