My Nonprofit Reviews

SCVRJP's talking circle training has been a core component to the University of Wisconsin-River Falls' Destination Program. Our Domestic Destination Program occurs over spring break. The program includes education on a social issue, direct service, and reflection. We use talking circles as the main medium to facilitate reflection. What we have found is that by using talking circles our participants gain a greater understanding of one another as well as the social issue they are examining throughout the week of service. Talking Circles give everyone a voice and by sharing stories people gain a new perspective/compassion for each other. The Destination Program is so thankful that SCVRJP trains and enlightens us each year! Through the talking circle process lives are transformed.
