Once you have distinguished that you would like to be a facilitator, we will contact you through email to come pick up the book. We are expecting the books to arrive late April or early May.

Also, we will be sending another survey monkey link to those interested in facilitating later this spring that will include dates to our facilitator luncheons in August. These meetings will serve as an opportunity to informally speak about the book with colleagues, gather possible questions to use at the facilitation, and become better acquainted with themes in the book.

In addition, alternate versions of the book will be available for you to access (word/PDF/mp3).

We look forward to having you as part of the facilitation team!
