Join fellow members from three networks -- the Retreat Center Collaboration, the Holistic Centers Network, and Advaya -- in an introductory webinar. Learn more about the values that guide each of our 3 networks, our varying definitions of collaboration, and the opportunities for shared insights as we deepen our commitments in our own communities.
A panel discussion will explore the differences in our approaches and the similarities in our values, with the intention of broadening our mutual horizons and fostering connections. We'll also share a small group conversation and a large group dialogue.
