LoraKim Joyner, DVM, Certified NVC Trainer:

Developing interpersonal relationship skills in congregations is integral to working with the conflicts that arise. NVC helps us turn toward conflict and connect us to life so we can sit with unmet needs, grow the trust to accept our humanity and shift our behaviour so that it reflects trust, love, and interconnectedness. These principles can be applied to any spiritual community.
