SUMMARY:Open Circle Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Open Circle Network has been created as a nonprofit organization\, under the auspices of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of the United States\, that invites Bahá’ís and friends facing challenging personal issues to explore the Writings\, pray\, share and learn in a spiritual\, healing and confidential environment. \n\n\n\nIts four regional conferences each year are designed to include all those who want to gather and feel supported\, no matter what their personal struggle may be. \n\n\n\nOpen Circle’s mission is to explore spiritual principles and concepts related to difficult and challenging personal and social issues and to consider questions and concerns that arise in the application of these principles in individual and community development. \n\n\n\nOpen Circle activities draw directly on spiritual principles from the Bahá’í Faith and are open to people of all religious and philosophical backgrounds. Primary issues addressed include addictions\, abuse and trauma\, sexuality and gender challenges\, mental health challenges\, and HIV/AIDS. \n\n\n\nRace\, gender\, culture and class are explicitly addressed\, as these factors affect how individuals and communities experience these challenges. \n\n\n\nEach conference is a group experience that includes interactive opening activities\, plenary talks\, workshops\, art\, devotions\, and free time for prayer\, meditation and socializing. \n\n\n\nConferences are structured to provide a loving atmosphere for any soul who gathers to share\, learn and heal. To preserve confidentiality and ensure a safe environment\, participants are asked to attend the entire conference.
