Christian Small Business Owners — Education & Networking

Hartford, CT

Christian Small Business Owners — Education & Networking
Our events are now completely online. We are a group of Christian small business owners looking to have breakthroughs in the following: 1 Continuing education: Actionable insights for running a profitable small business in accordance with the will of God 2 Contacts: You will meet other Christian Small Business Owners, so that you can establish collaborations and friendships 3 The joy of being on a faith-based business journey together with other Christian Small Business Owners Are you a follower of Jesus Christ and a solopreneur or small business owner? Then please join our group ASAP! See you soon, and be blessed! Norbert Bollow, Organizer P. S. for the benefit of those who like to have things spelled out in detail, here are some more specifics: Goals of the group: Learning from each other in informal discussion and from prepared presentations. Business networking / creating contacts, collaborations and friendships. Having a good time together. We are committed to creating a healthy community of support for all our members for their wellbeing and business. We will learn from experience what specific kinds of events to do in order to pursue these goals, but there will probably always be some educational content, some related discussion, and some social and business networking aspects. All events of the group are provided free of charge. There are no costs or fees charged to members. We all benefit most from our interactions when events are well-attended, without the hassle of fees getting in the way. Who should join the group: Christian Small Business Owners, widely interpreted. Besides well-established businesses, it’s also quite ok if your business is only a side hustle or even still a dream transitioning to the planning phase. All who consider themselves Christians, or even just curious about the Christian faith, are welcome. While we discuss the application of what the Bible says to today’s business realities, differences of theology and faith practices between different faith traditions are not what we’re concerned with in this group. The group and all events are intended to be a friendly and totally discrimination-free environment. If someone says something that you consider to be incompatible with the Christian faith, please treat them as an honored guest. The organizer of this group is himself a Christian solopreneur, self-employed as a business coach. The group is not affiliated with any religious or business organization beyond this group and a couple of similar groups run by the same organizer, each with a different geographical focus; online events can be shared across groups in order to bring a good number of like-minded people together.

Alternatives to Suicide Connecticut

Hartford, CT

Alternatives to Suicide Connecticut
Welcome to Connecticut's **Alternatives to Suicide** network. ***Alt2su Middletown group has been cancelled due to inclement weather: 1/9/24. Please check out our other groups, in-person and online options. Or please join us next week. Thank you for understanding!*** This is a network of mutual Peer Support groups. [Alternatives to Suicide (also called: Alt2Su)](https://toivocenter.org/alternatives-to-suicide/) is a network of peer-run support groups for people dealing with suicidal thoughts, urges, and/or previous attempts. [[If you are interested in attending one of our virtual Alt2su groups, please email the contact person for that group, listed on our [webpage](https://toivocenter.org/alternatives-to-suicide/).]] These groups are safe places to talk about topics directly related to struggles with suicidal urges, Depression, or whatever else needs to be expressed. Our Facilitators are trained to listen and use their own lived experience in support of others. In these groups, we encourage the notion of **responsibility *to* one another, not *for* one another.** In lieu of this value, people can openly express their experiences without fear of someone calling crisis intervention or psychiatric hospitalization. We will only involve these services with the person's clear consent and group members will never be pressured to do so at any time. These groups are for adults, 18+. People are encouraged to come during times of crisis, as well as during times of strength. You do not need a referral to join us. Participation is completely voluntary. No attendance is taken. Your attendance will be totally confidential. **We do ask that attendees come with an open mind, free of judgement - ready to receive emotional support as well as lend it to others.** This network is brought to you by Toivo Center and Advocacy Unlimited, a Peer-run organization serving Connecticut. For more information about our approach and values, please take a look at the [Alternatives to Suicide group charter](https://wildfloweralliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/CHARTER_alt2su_August-edits.pdf?msclkid=2316f6dad09711ec96b75f6ee67b4894) - *as originally developed by the Wildflower Alliance, a peer-run organization in western Massachusetts.*
