Join us for a transformative experience at the Friendship Group: Cultivating Kindness and Connection. In this supportive environment, we meet others also looking to foster kind and loving connections where we can practice friendship skills like active listening, clear communication, healthy boundaries, vulnerability, authenticity, and more, to foster a sense of belonging and community.
This is a place where good manners and respect are the norm, and where we embrace each other's differences with love and acceptance.
Throughout the evenings, participants will engage in discussions, activities, and exercises aimed at deepening their connections with others and fostering a culture of kindness and compassion. We believe that by practicing kindness and empathy, we can create a more positive and harmonious community for everyone.
