status of Peer Support Circles

[car...@authenticityconsulting.com]

You might remember that Teri and I were starting a website with free resources and guidelines for people to start their own coaching-based support groups or to join a support group themselves, and that the groups were designed specifically for providing support during these stressful times.  The https://PeerSupportCircles.org website has been fully functional for about six months.  

We have various organizations that provide them for their constituents.  For example, the Lean In organization (with chapters around the world) has trained 65 facilitators so far, including to translate our materials to different languages.  They started 25 more Peer Support Circles last Saturday.  We are working with one of the largest unions in America (AFSCME) that  wants to provide them to their members.  A local government agency started their circles about three months ago. 

So, as it is with many initiatives, it starts with a long, slow, slog, but then takes off in its own timing :-)

Teri and I hope you all are doing well.  Thanks!
