Adult RE Presents: Verbal De-escalation

  • Kitsap Unitarian Universal Fellowship 4418 Perry Avenue Northeast Bremerton, WA, 98310 United States (map)

Our KUUF Safe Congregations Committee is presenting the Adult Education class for August when Jerry Butler will be facilitating a class on verbal de-escalation. This has to do with learning to listen to and respond with compassion to someone who is upset so as to promote empathy and understanding and help them come back to a place of connection and dialogue. This class is part of our training program for our volunteer Safety Monitors but is also open to anyone in the KUUF community who is interested. The skill of de-escalation can be helpful in relating to anyone in you life who is distressed to the point where communication and connection breaks down.

Time and Date of class: Sunday, August 13th, 11:45AM - 1:00 or 1:15PM
Where: Administration Building/Board Room
