SUMMARY:Active Bystander Intervention Training
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by DC Peace Team: www.dcpeaceteam.com \nSaturday\, July 24th 10am-3pm (EST) with one hour break from 12-1pm.\nONLINE: Zoom link shared after you complete registration in the confirmation message window which pops up after you complete this form and emailed to you about 24 hrs. before the session\n(Contact Eli: esm52@georgetown.edu) \nAn active bystander training teaches effective skills for assessing\, de-escalating\, and diffusing a problematic situation\, such as intimidation\, harassment\, abuse\, physical violence\, etc. Active bystander training focuses on a bystander observing a problematic situation and determining if and how to intervene. This is distinct from self-assertion training that teaches how to de-escalate and diffuse unwanted attention when you are being harassed or attacked. An active bystander is someone who not only witnesses a situation\, but takes steps to speak up or step in to keep a situation from escalating or to disrupt a problematic situation. \nThis is an interactive\, participatory\, beginner’s workshop designed for those that may have none to little prior studies of bystander intervention. \n***************************** \nPayment is requested on a sliding scale. Please consider $45-$100 to help us continue this work and better serve the community. No one will be turned away for lack of payment and we welcome you either way. \nFor those who can\, please submit payment today– https://dcpeaceteam.com/donate/; or checks can be written out to DC Peace Team and mailed to Eli McCarthy\, 7305 Baylor Ave. College Park\, MD 20740. \nFor questions contact Eli McCarthy at esm52@georgetown.edu. \nFacilitators:\nEli S. McCarthy\, Ph.D. (he/his) is a co-founder of the DC Peace Team and has led numerous trainings. He also teaches at Georgetown University in Justice and Peace Studies. Eli has published a book called “A Just Peace Ethic Primer: Building Sustainable Peace and Breaking Cycles of Violence” (2020) along with numerous journal articles such as “Truth and Reconciliation Commissions: Toward a More Just U.S. Society\,” and “Will You Really Protect Us Without a Gun?: Unarmed Civilian Peacekeeping in the U.S.” He has been formed by multiple trips to Haiti working with the poor\, working with the homeless in Boston and DC\, and monitoring the Palestinian Elections in 2006 with the Nonviolent Peaceforce. He has also led strategic nonviolent resistance campaigns\, such as on issues of immigration.

SUMMARY:Laudato Si' and the U.S. Catholic Church: A Conference Series on Our Common Home
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Creighton University and Catholic Climate Covenant \n“Laudato Si’ and the U.S. Catholic Church: A Conference Series on Our Common Home” is a biennial conference series to convene\, equip\, and inspire Catholics who can more deeply integrate Laudato Si’ and its climate change teaching into the U.S. Church. \nThe first convening was held at Creighton in June 2019 and the presentations were published in the Journal of Moral Theology. The second gathering will be held virtually July 13-15\, 2021. In partnership with Creighton\, the 2021 conference expresses Catholic Climate Covenant’s leading role coordinating U.S. Catholic enactment of the Vatican “Laudato Si’ Action Platform.” \nThe 2021 conference will open on July 13 with a keynote event featuring His Eminence Blase Cardinal Cupich\, Archbishop of Chicago\, and Maureen Day\, PhD\, Assistant Professor of Religion and Society at the Franciscan School of Theology. The event\, “A Bold Embrace of Laudato Si’ By The U.S. Catholic Church\,” will assess why the U.S. Catholic response to Laudato Si’ has not been commensurate with the urgency and gravity of the climate crisis. \nOn July 14-15\, the conference will feature interactive breakout sessions facilitated by teams of ministry leaders working to more faithfully incorporate Laudato Si’ into eight areas of the U.S. Catholic Church: \n\nAdvocacy\nColleges/Universities\nCommunications/Media\nCreation Care Teams (especially at parishes and dioceses)\nEnvironmental Justice\nPreaching for Creation Care\nParochial School Education\nYouth & Young Adults\n\nEach ministry leadership team will share the strategies\, plans\, and resources being developed with members of their working group. Presentations will be followed by discussion with conference participants. \nThe conference will conclude on July 15 with a closing address by Sister Ilia Delio\, OSF\, PhD\, Josephine C. Connelly Endowed Chair in Theology at Villanova University. The address\, “Can the Earth Be Healed? Insights from Teilhard de Chardin\, SJ\,” will consider Catholic spiritual and theological insights that can enliven a more faithful commitment to care for our common home. \nThe 2021 virtual gathering will be free and open to the public but registration is required. At the time of registration\, attendees are encouraged to make a freewill donation to help offset conference costs that include Spanish language translations.

DESCRIPTION:Facilitated by the DC Peace Team \nSaturday\, July 10th\, 2021: 12:00 – 3:00 pm EDT\nLocation: ONLINE (Zoom link provided about 24 hrs. before the session)\nContact: sal.corbin@yahoo.com \nCurrently\, the world is under an ample amount of stress due to the global pandemic. Staying inside and practicing social distancing can cause some people to not only feel stress\, but also anxiety\, loneliness and depression. Essentially\, self-care can be any activity that refreshes your mind and body\, and it is meant to add joy and fun to life. Practicing self-care is important for promoting individual growth\, but it also improves the way we interact and connect with others. Regularly engaging in self-care promotes healthier relationships with family members\, partners\, friends\, co-workers\, and is especially important for those in caregiving roles. \nThis session will draw on restorative circle approaches. \nObjectives:\n1) Learn models for inter and intrapersonal impact\n2) Identify mechanisms for self-care and resilience\n3) Distinguish between burnout & compassion fatigue \n____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ \nContribution:\nPayment is requested on a sliding scale.
