vision. learning. integration. transformation.
The Learning and Action Circles (LACs) provide a great opportunity for our ROC DC team, including myself, to hone in on specific skills sets that are central to our work in an intimate setting curated and accompanied by Movement Matters, with the participation of fellow regional organizers who understand our challenges and strengths. My favorite part is the ongoing opportunity to continue to make new connections, and grow stronger bonds with other organizers and organizations with similar goals and missions.

Learning and Action Circles
Movement Matters Learning and Action Circles (LACs) are generative spaces that cement participants' capacities and skills in the areas of relationship, constituency, and power building while also deepening the learning from our Community Organizing and Popular Education Institute, Advanced Training Series, and our tailored Technical Assistance.
With the recognition that our personal well-being and the strength of our change work are interconnected, the LACs also incorporate restorative and self care activities with a community focus. Using culture, ritual, somatics, expressive arts, movement, and other holistic modalities, participants have the opportunity to learn and restore in community, while practicing skills to bring to their own groups.
To the best of our abilities, we provide our alumni with tailored support, including preparing for these sessions, so that they can get the most out of our time together and apply the learning thoughtfully and successfully to their work.
