Beginning in the spring of 2006, The Harwood Institute will be offering three new events for you to explore and make progress on forging an alternate path in public life. If you would like additional information on any of these events, please contact us.

• Public Life Retreat - The Public Life Retreat will be a casual convening that offers you the opportunity to interact in a small group setting with Rich Harwood, who will facilitate this conversation. There will be a chance to bring your own ideas into the space, question Rich, and delve deeply into the issues facing our communities and country.
  
  If you are interested in bringing Rich to your community for a day-and-a-half retreat, please contact Mike Wood at 301-656-3669 or mwood@theharwoodinstitute.org.
  

• Public Innovators Lab - As public innovators, we are all wrestling with how to accelerate genuine change in our communities. At The Harwood Institute, we recognize that we can pursue this alternate path by individuals examining and exercising a core set of sensibilities and practices in their work, which is why we created the Public Innovators Lab.

Community Foundation Workspace - We know from our work that community foundations can be catalysts for deep, fundamental change. The question is, "How?" If you work for a grant-making organization and are trying to figure out how to have greater impact in your community, then the Community Foundation Workspace is for you.
