We don’t need to wait for experts or politicians to finally get in gear, nor do we need to let everything collapse. We can begin to create a community economy that works now, in our own neighborhoods.
Join the PROUT Institute for a special study group to learn how.
The PROUT Study Group is a 6 week course at Dharmalaya, facilitated by Jason Schreiner.
You’ll learn empowering concepts, practical tools, and specific strategies for developing individual and collective agency, so that you become more confident and capable of catalyzing change that is solution-oriented.
You’ll discover the power of the Progressive Utilization Theory (PROUT) as a comprehensive approach for the design and planning of a community economy that is resilient, productive, and equitable.
And you’ll have fun engaging with others in hands-on, mind-enriching activities in a collaborative, highly interactive learning environment.
Starting January 26, we’ll gather from 7:30-9:00pm each Monday evening for six weeks, at Dharmalaya, 356 Horn Lane, Eugene, Oregon.
Spread the word! This is a unique opportunity to come together and learn a powerful approach to envision and build a new community economy.
