Connectors Table: Fixing, helping, or serving?

The Mainstreaming on Main Street (MoMS) Connector’s Table taking place on March 21st will focus on “Fixing, helping, or serving.”  It is an exploration rather than a destination.  To participate, sign up at:  http://meetu.ps/37xkm7

 

We use the terms “fixing, helping, or serving” regularly.  Things that are broken need fixing; we help those who cannot help themselves.  We can only serve, however, by whole heartedly engaging with others.  Each has its time and place.  This month’s Mainstreaming on Main Street (MoMS) Connectors Table will focus on negotiating the landscape of fixing, helping, or serving.  This is a conversation and an exploration.  You are invited to participate by sharing your own, unique, experiences.

If you know of others who might be interested in this roundtable conversation, please let them know.

 

All roundtables are open to everyone.  As a first-person conversation, all participants are asked to speak on behalf of themselves, from their own experiences.  An underlying tenant of the roundtables is “We are each of us broken, and yet, we are all whole persons.”

 

Recent conversations have included:  models of disability; Microaggression and marginalization; discrimination and disability rights; disclosing/coming out as having a disability.  Future roundtables will include:  building a team – consuming/collaborating; and where we go from here.
