As part of “Remember, Reflect, Recommit,” SNF Agora Institute’s virtual conference to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment, Stoop Storytelling co-founder Laura Wexler leads an interactive virtual experience in which you’ll discover the evidence-based power of stories as a universal tool of communication. In celebration of our conference theme, this training will focus particularly on becoming the protagonist of your own tale. 

 The two-hour session will start with a lecture/discussion on the power and principles of personal storytelling. After a short break, participants will break into small groups for structured story-sharing sessions, then reconvene to wrap up.  

Participants will share a personal story about a time they acted as a protagonist in their own life, taking action to solve a problem, right a wrong, face a challenge, achieve a goal, whether in the personal, familial, or community sphere. 

This will be an interactive, hands-on workshop. We will use the Zoom webinar format, including Zoom breakout rooms for small group work.  

This training is free, but space is limited and registration is required.
