    Personal stories and shared experiences stay within the group. Respect the privacy and trust of others.

  • Engage with Intention

    Be present, participate actively, and contribute meaningfully to discussions and activities.

  • Assume Positive Intent

    Approach disagreements with kindness and assume others are speaking from a place of good faith.

  • Call Each Other In, Not Out

    If someone’s behavior or language is not aligned with the group’s values, address it respectfully and constructively.

  • Stay Solution-Focused

    Discussions should aim to explore challenges and generate actionable ideas rather than dwelling on negativity.
