OUR SERVICES

Discover the unique program development offered by Still Waters Gathering Place, Inc.

Listening, Visitation, & Narrative Circles

Our organization conducts neighborhood visitation tours where our staff and volunteers collaborate with community leaders to understand local challenges. During these visits, we engage in open dialogues with residents to identify their most pressing needs. We also host "the round table" - story-sharing sessions in a safe, judgment-free environment where community members share their experiences and aspirations. These activities provide valuable insights that directly shape our support initiatives, ensuring we address critical needs in ways that create meaningful, lasting change for the communities we serve.

Participatory Design Workshop

We hold regular workshops bringing together various stakeholders to brainstorm, identify key challenges, and collaboratively design solutions. These sessions create space for fresh ideas, strengthen relationships, and ensure our public relations approaches directly connect with community experiences and address essential needs drawing inspiration from the principles of Duty to Cooperate.

Divergent Data Collective

Our team distributes surveys (both online and paper-based) to capture a comprehensive picture of experiences and needs across the communities we serve. We meticulously compile and analyze this data before sharing results with our partners. These insights directly inform discussions and shape strategic decisions at our monthly meeting forums, ensuring our public relations approach remains firmly grounded in concrete evidence.
