One Change You Can Make for Better Health

A Workshop for Community Organizers and Activists

You're changing the world. The  Sustainable Health Institute wants to support your important work by supporting your health.

You know from your work that often change doesn't come in a one-size-fits-all package. That's why this workshop focuses on what "better health" means to you and the specific changes you can make to achieve it.

What we offer is a critical perspective on health science and health practices based on over 13 years producing the Your Own Health And Fitness radio show on KPFA 94.1FM Berkeley, CA. That's what we bring to the workshop.

What you bring to the workshop is your specific, experience-based knowledge about your own health. Together we'll work to integrate the two.

The workshop is small, informal, non-hierarchical, and participatory. We bring together 8 to 12 people who, like you, are working for social change. For two hours we'll facilitate a dialogue on specific actions you can take.

You can expect to leave the workshop with at least one action item that makes a change for better health for you. You'll also leave with a practical understanding of how to develop a critical perspective on health information and how to think through health issues.  

Jeffry Fawcett, PhD facilitates the workshop. He co-produces and contributes to Layna Berman's Your Own Health And Fitness radio show on KPFA 94.1 FM Berkeley, CA. He is also the publisher of the quarterly newsletter Progressive Health Observer: A News Commentary Alternative to Big Box Medicine. We're scheduling workshops now. We arrange date, time, and location of workshops to meet your needs. Contact us for more information.
