We lead with curiosity and non-judgmental support

We recognize how our own social positionality (race, class, gender, sexuality, identity) informs our perspectives

We honor each other’s experiences and value our different perspectives

We create space for all to contribute

We listen to understand, not respond

We hold personal stories in confidence, but take the lessons with us

We respect and honor the identities of all people

We challenge the idea, not the person

We reflect on intention and prioritize repair work for unintended impact

We assume positive intent

We participate to our full ability, but recognize that not everyone engages in the same way

We take good care of ourselves and each other
