Using Story Circles to Capture Local Community Responses to Gender-based Violence

The National Resource Center on Domestic Violence has been mobilizing people to commit to doing #1Thing in response to the problem of gender-based violence. In this free, one-hour webinar for Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month, StoryCenter's Amy Hill will introduce a simple, community-based process for sharing and capturing poignant personal stories of how people are taking action. Adapted from the organization's digital storytelling workshop approach, the Story Circle process brings small groups together to explore meaningful moments from their lives, connect with each other through storytelling, and identify ways they can continue to work together and take leadership on the critical social issues of our time. While the webinar will focus on Story Circle process and guidelines, Amy will also cover simple ways to document stories using smart phones and other digital media production devices. Join us to explore ways to amplify our #1Thing stories throughout Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month and beyond.
