Minnesota Rising Dispatch] May 2018

[#mnrising Dispatch] May 2018 Minnesota Rising celebrates nine years as a network this month! To mark the occasion and honor the manifold transitions that our individual members as well as our collective network have made in that time, we are hosting our first Minnesota Rising RE:treat. The daylong gathering will provide an opportunity for emerging leaders to reflect, connect with self and others, integrate intentions and actions, and feel a sense of renewal and clarity.
