Common Good Vermont is pleased to share this event hosted by Harlow Nonprofit Consulting.
Nonprofits have been stretched thin for too long. When capacity feels scarce, genuine learning and connection are often the first things to go.
Winter Roots is a three-month virtual learning experience for nonprofit staff, board members, and volunteers who want to reimagine how we work, lead, and care together. Every Tuesday from mid-January through the end of March, we’ll gather as a community to explore how we can work with more intention, inclusion, and depth.
Weekly sessions include expert speakers on topics like neuroinclusive employment practices, trauma-informed storytelling, and diversity in board governance, plus facilitated collective learning sessions where participants shape the conversation. Each session runs 60-75 minutes and combines expert insight with real discussion.
This isn’t about doing more with less — it’s about rethinking how we show up in our work and how our organizations can center humanity and well-being.
The series is free because professional development should be accessible to everyone, no matter the size of your budget or team. Open to nonprofit folks everywhere.
More information and registration can be found here.
A Note From Abbey Harlow:
I’ve spent nearly two decades helping small nonprofits build stronger systems, and I’ve seen how easily the people behind the work get lost in the process.
This series is one small way to change that; a space to pause, connect, and remember that we can build thriving organizations that do good work without burning out the humans inside them.
I can’t wait to see you this winter.
