Monday, February 8th, 2010
7:00 PM to 9:00 PM

Language shapes character. The way we speak and the words we use have great power to discourage or to inspire. The language of virtues helps us to replace shaming and blaming with responsibility and respect. It helps us to become the kind of people we want to be.

The Virtues Project TM was founded in 1991 as a call to do something to counteract rising violence among youth and families. Linda Kavelin-Popov is a psychotherapist, organizational consultant, and community healer. Her husband, Dr. Dan Popov, is a clinical paediatric psychologist and senior computer scientist. The Popovs speak to thousands of people each year. They have also written many books and material including a guide containing fifty-two universal virtues to help parents bring out the best in their children and themselves.

Join us on February 8th and discover �..
� Personal tools for living our best lives
� Simple ways to develop virtues � the gift of character
