This Covenant is for creating safer, sacred space for all participants. Your presence indicates your agreement to abide by the following Conversational Covenant:

1. We will respect the facilitators as the leaders of the conversation. We will speak directly to the facilitators.
2. We will remain seated.
3. We will use a talking object so that all may be heard.
4. We will use “I” statements and speak only from our own experiences. 
5. We will keep the conversation confidential, meaning whatever is said is not to be shared with anyone who has not participated in the conversation. 
6. We will not make any electronic recordings of the conversation.
7. We will limit note-taking to brief reminders of topics to address when it is our turn to speak.
