Leadership Triangle, a local nonprofit, is partnering with CIRCLE (a research/civic engagement unit at Tufts University) on a study titled Young People’s Civic Engagement in Low Media Ecosystem Communities. Chatham County is one of a few counties in the country where young adult voter turnout is higher than you would expect for the existing media ecosystem, and the Tufts team wants to try to understand why. They're hoping to interview 15-30 young adults through focus group discussions, defined as anyone between 18-29 years of age. Interviewees must reside in Chatham County. You'll receive a $50 Visa gift card for your participation.

🗓️ Date: Thursday, March 6th

⏰ Time: Two time slots available: 12:00 pm or 6:00 pm

📍Location: Chatham County Agriculture & Conference Center - 1192 U.S. Hwy 64 West Business, Pittsboro, NC 27312

It’s time to embrace your greatness, identify and overcome limiting beliefs, and step into your most authentic self. Trauma affects both the mind and body, and to truly heal, we must process it through both. Whether you’ve experienced a car accident, the loss of a loved one, or other life challenges, your body remembers—our nervous system “keeps the score.” Trauma can prune the branches of our nervous system, but the good news is those branches can regrow.

This 6-week series focuses on rebuilding those connections through Empowerment Protocols—evidence-based modalities designed to help you process trauma through the body. Guided by Lindsey, this series combines classroom instruction with practical techniques. You'll gain an understanding of the biomechanics of trauma and how your brain and nervous system respond to different events. Each session includes movement practices and meditative exercises that promote healing, calm your nervous system, and help you move past the barriers holding you back.

• Dates: Thursdays, January 16th – February 25th

• Time: 7:30 PM – 9:00 PM

• Location: Sanford, NC

• Cost: $150 for all six sessions

A limited number of scholarships are available for those in need. If cost is a barrier, please email sanfordyogaandcommunitycenter@gmail.com to request support. GET YOUR TICKETS HERE!

Take the first step toward healing and reclaiming your power—this is your time!

It’s 1981 and a young bartender (Jamie) is closing up one night, when there is a flash of red light outside. Thinking it’s an ambulance going by, he ignores it. Moments later, an older man (Jimmy) comes in for a quick one. They talk for a bit and get on to the subject of Jamie’s aspiring career as a pianist — he’s about to take time off from everything to just study and gig. Jimmy tells him to go for it, that he’ll regret it for the rest of his life if he doesn’t. At that, a young woman (Abby, Jamie’s girlfriend) enters the bar. They talk about life, careers, destiny, and finally, Jimmy tells them an unbelievable story about himself…that they don’t believe. As Jimmy is about to leave, there is another flash of red light and an older woman enters. She is not at all pleased. This is a story about love, following your dreams (or not) and the costs of the decisions we make.

Proceeds from this event will be donated to the Chatham County Pride Alliance. Get your tickets!
