As individuals, a growing majority of Americans feel urgent about the seriousness of climate change and the importance of taking more action. And yet, there is an ongoing perception gap between how strongly we might feel internally and how much we perceive those around us externally actually care. If we don't see others talking about this issue and taking action, we assume that other people don’t care.

Join this CCL training to hear from CCL staff and volunteers on what and how each of us can break the spiral of silence in our own lives and empower our fellow community members to live into CCL's mission of experiencing individual breakthroughs in the exercise of our personal and political power.
