The Center for Courage & Renewal exists to nurture deep integrity and relational trust, building the foundation for a more loving, equitable, and healthy world. Based on the work of author and activist Parker J. Palmer, the Courage & Renewal approach helps us actively and intentionally choose to nurture ways of being with ourselves and one another that move against the violent, oppressive forces that create personal and societal division. We are a nonprofit organization and a global collaboration of nearly 300 facilitators, prepared to carry the Courage & Renewal approach into their work, lives, and communities by offering Circle of Trust® retreats, programs, events, and consulting.
