Hello EE Community!

I am really excited to have had a part in developing an LGBT Retreat in Yellowstone this summer! We have 2 wonderful instructors facilitating this program that bring different EE perspectives as guides and educators. (Bios below)

Relevant to this EE community is the financial aid we have available! I have budgeted for 5 more scholarships for formal or informal educators on this program, please check out the course letter and pass on the information! General registration is also still open and we are happy to accommodate more folks, even non-educators! Please call 406.848.2400 for more information, or just start in on the financial aid application!

Be Well,
Stephen
