Be personally accountable
Be continuously introspective
Be actively non-judgmental
Unpack conflicts calmly
Respect the spirit of the rules
Staffed currently by volunteers, Trent talks about some of the goals for future expansion and sustainability of the organization, its membership growth, its online events and coaching services, and ways that those interested can become involved.
