We believe that individuals and communities already possess the innate wisdom needed to address and solve any challenges they may be facing. we work to support these individuals and communities to develop their own wisdom— derived from their own experiences and values—to realize their visions of healthier, more productive, and more meaningful relationships that help them attain their common goals.
