Community Building Workshops experientially introduce participants to processes that promote effective interpersonal communication and strong social connections. Students who have completed the workshop in the past have said that it is one of the most powerful experiences they have had at UW-Milwaukee, allowing them to authentically encounter themselves and others.
Time Exchange is a unique form of mutual aid in which members of a community share resources with one another in a way that strengthens community ties and individual well-being. Combining Community Building and Time Exchange enables participants to exchange their talents and time within the context of an evolving and caring community.
