The holidays are just around the corner, and they can bring up a lot, especially when your family spans the political spectrum. That’s why Women’s March and Leaving MAGA are hosting Uncomfortable Conversations: How (and Why) to Talk with MAGA Family, next Monday, November 24, at 4pm. This training will give you the tools and tactics to navigate tough conversations with clarity, compassion, and healthy boundaries.
Please find a way to both take action and take care of yourself. Read on for important upcoming events and other ways to get involved in this week’s “Ways to Engage” series from Alaska Forward!
