"In a survey conducted by the American Psychological Association in 2017, for the first time, a majority of Americans (across the political spectrum) rank fear about the current political climate (57%) and future of our country (66%) as a leading cause of stress…running in line or ahead of the old standbys: money, work and the economy."

Courageous Leadership, LLC created the Courageous Democracy Initiative to provide evidence-based tools to reach across widening political divides and create a more caring, sustainable democracy.

We conducted our first 4-hour Courageous Democracy workshop for Rotary Clubs on January 27th, 2018. The pilot was attended by nearly 3 times as many participants as we were expecting - some driving the distance of 4 hours to attend.

We are very grateful to report that a large foundation funded our Courageous Democracy work with the Junior State of America (JSA).

Last week we conducted our first Courageous Leadership for a Courageous Democracy training for approximately 250 high school students from Junior State of America.

We're grateful to the Greater Good Science Center for featuring our Courageous Leadership for a Courageous Democracy work with Junior State of America in this article

Courageous Leadership was thrilled to facilitate a breakout session on Courageous Conversations. We enjoyed our time with the Rotarians from Northern California and Northern Nevada.
