Do you sometimes feel misunderstood? Do you lack confidence when communicating in a group? Do you sometimes wish you could say things better or differently? Do you want to be a better listener?

You’ll learn assertive communication, self-advocacy strategies, active listening and how to give and receive feedback. At the end of the program, you will be able to apply your new skills in your everyday life and more actively engage in the activities that are important to you.
