In the spirit of solidarity with the trees and each other, Marggie Chandler, Naomi Wagner, and Ellen Faulkner invite you to a Nonviolence Training. This is a fun way to get informed, plug in and be ready to help save the forest.

Want to take Action for the Trees in Jackson?

Join the Training to learn about Nonviolent Forest Defense using…

  • Direct Action — nonviolence guidelines 
  • Consensus Process — non-hierarchical decision making
  • Affinity Group formation –how to organize an Action
  • Role plays—what to expect if you’re arrested
  • Jail and Legal support—no one left alone, lawyers available

NVT Alumni Welcome—Please feel free to join the training again!

Note: A Facilitation Workshop is being planned for those who have taken at least two full NVTs (can include the upcoming training on Oct. 9). Anyone can learn to facilitate with a little help from their friends! Please contact Marggie, Ellen or Naomi if you’re interested.
