Virtual Workshop: Friends, Families and Politics

About this event

Political tension can strain family and friend relationships. Build skills to protect important bonds while staying true to your values.

Note: This *FREE* event is to be attended online.

Hosted by the San Diego Braver Angels Alliance and League of Women Voters of North County San Diego

Family and friend relationships can become casualties of a toxic political environment. People are having bitter political arguments, avoiding each other, or even cutting off lifetime relationships.

If you want to preserve important bonds while still being true to your values and political beliefs, this workshop will offer you:

  • Insight into why differences over politics with family and friends are uniquely challenging
  • Recognition of common roles people play in political conversations
  • Strategies and skills for handling political differences in a constructive way

Although the focus is on family relationships, you can use the learnings in this workshop with friends or any loved one. You’ll laugh and have some fun in this workshop—it won’t be all serious. After all, we all come from quirky families and friend groups.

The League of Women Voters of North County San Diego is proud to co-sponsor this event as part of its commitment to strengthening civic engagement through conflict resolution, respectful dialogue, and informed participation in our democracy. You can find more information here: https://lwvncsd.org/
