We will share our issues and views, connecting across cultures. Then we go around the circle again to close.
We strive to create a respectful space of integrity and support, in which
each woman can express her own truth in her own way.
Please bring your journal/writing materials, a beverage and your lunch.
Coffee will be served.
These Dialogues are now held twice a year, in the spring and the fall,
in different places on the Cape.
