We believe we are in an epoch-changing period of crisis, chaos, and collapse involving structures, systems, and culture. Instead of focusing on making a few adjustments to “fit in” better to a collapsing social order, our training will spur us to reimagine what it takes to make the changes necessary to forge a better quality of life for all, especially the most marginalized. This period will certainly require protest and resistance, but we are convinced that we must “bend” protest and resistance energy into building transformative ways of thinking, building alternative institutions, and rebuilding broken neighborhoods and communities. While our training is available to all sectors, races, faiths, and ages, training marginalized youth to rebuild their own neighborhoods and communities, with emphasis on community safety, neighborhood-based economic enterprises, health and wellness, education for life are central to our approach.
