Participants of The Wakanheza Project(tm) Workshop will learn how to...

*       effectively respond to everyday stressful situations between
people
*       understand the root of many situations, and
*       prevent those situations from happening in the first place.

This workshop will help public service staff find...

*       effective ways to help people
*       de-escalate difficult situations between parents & children, and
*       ways to make public places more welcoming to all.

Wakanheza is the Dakota word for child.  The English translation is
"sacred being."  Imagine if we were to treat one another as sacred
beings.  Imagine a community where EVERYONE feels welcomed and
respected.  Learn more at http://www.co.ramsey.mn.us/ph/cp/wakanheza.
