SUMMARY:Film Series: The Babushkas of Chernobyl
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 16th \n5pm-7pm \nDoors open at 4pm for opportunity to walk the grounds and grab a drink from our cash bar. \nLocation: 24 Cottage Rd. Kensington\, NH \nFilm screening begins at 5PM\, followed by zoom Q&A session with the director. \nWe are thrilled to announce that we will be showcasing yet another one of Holly Morris’s incredible films\, The Babushkas of Chernobyl! After being inspired by her previous work\, Exposure\, we can’t wait to share this film with you. Holly will be joining us virtually for a special Q&A session following the screening\, and we couldn’t be more excited to have her as a part of our Film Series. So sit back\, relax\, and get ready to be blown away by this amazing film. Keep reading to learn more about it – trust us\, you won’t want to miss it! \nSynopsis\nIn the radioactive Dead Zone surrounding Chernobyl’s Reactor No. 4\, a defiant community of women scratches out an existence on some of the most toxic land on Earth. They share this hauntingly beautiful but lethal landscape with an assortment of interlopers—scientists\, soldiers\, and even ‘stalkers’—young thrill-seekers who sneak in to pursue post-apocalyptic video game-inspired fantasies. Why the film’s central characters\, Hanna Zavorotyna\, Maria Shovkuta\, and Valentyna Ivanivna\, chose to return after the disaster\, defying the authorities and endangering their health\, is a remarkable tale about the pull of home\, the healing power of shaping one’s destiny and the subjective nature of risk. \nTo learn more\, visit the official film website here. \nAbout the Director\nHolly Morris \nFor tow decades Holly Morris has told\, and championed\, pro-woman\, cross-cultural stories on the global stage. She is an internationally known filmmaker\, author\, and presenter (Adventure Divas\, Globa Trekker\, Treks in a Wild World). \nHer last feature film\, The Babushkas of Chernobyl (“Beautiful\, affectionate and stirring”- NYT) premiered at the Los Angeles Film Festival\, where it won the Jury Award for Directing\, the first of nearly two dozen awards received before being broadcast world-wide. The film\, based on her print journalism\, is about a defiant community of women who live inside Ukraine’s radioactive “Exclusion Zone”. The story is also the basis of her popular TED talk. \nRefund and weather policy \nTickets are non-refundable. Please note that all events at Alnoba are rain or shine. If an event is cancelled due to extreme weather you will receive an email notification. If you do not get an email notifying you that the event is cancelled\, that means the event is still going forward as scheduled. \n  \nBUY TICKETS\n  \nTrailer:

SUMMARY:The Art Of Peace With Kathleen Ford
DESCRIPTION:The Art Of Peace With Kathleen Ford\nFriday\, May 31st from 5PM to 8PM\nLocation: 1848 Barn at 199 South Rd. Kensington\, NH\nDoors open at 4pm for an opportunity to walk the grounds and grab a drink from our cash bar. \nJoin Certified Health and Life Coach\, Kathleen Ford\, for a special event! Artistic talent or knowledge is not necessary\, and this exercise is useful and available to anyone! \nAbout The Event \nWe are awakening to the realization that what we bring to our world is how we create our world. With this awareness comes an accountability to our own inner being and the knowledge that nothing can happen in our external world without it first happening at a level of consciousness. \nEvery human being faces challenges that create uncomfortable or painful emotions. In this class I will walk you through a simple\, useful\, creative exercise using paint and canvas to bring you guidance that will remedy or transmute an emotion\, thought\, or belief that is creating disharmony\, strife\, or conflict with your inner world. This is sometimes referred to as shadow work\, however you might also refer to this as your triggers\, habits\, or patterns of behavior. These aspects of self impact how we operate in our daily lives\, often not in alignment to our True selves. This can be in our awareness\, but often this happens subconsciously; an analogy would be\, it is like letting a passenger take the wheel while driving your car. \nThrough this exercise you will learn how to acknowledge these aspects of self in the non-judging\, non-shaming way\, and embrace them with compassion and understanding that will align you to an expanded level of consciousness that not only has the power to heal and transform you as an individual but will also benefit all of humanity. By creating peace in our inner world\, we bring peace to the world by our presence and being. \nEvent Schedule: \n\nClearing our Energetic Fields and Creating Our Safe Sacred Space\nBrief introduction with my story and my intentions\nAbout the class; why paint and canvas\, definitions of art and creativity\, emotions\, examples of how shadows\, triggers\, or patterns of behavior present\, definition of alchemy\n\n  \nThe Exercise: \n\nSetting your intention\nBrief meditation to open the heart space\nPainting the discord or disharmony\nIlluminating the discord; shining light on the darkness\nPainting the transformation\, alchemy\nSharing – Allowing time and space for all who want to share their experiences\n\n  \nRefund and Weather Policy \nTickets are non-refundable. Please note that all events at Alnoba are rain or shine. If an event is cancelled due to extreme weather you will receive an email notification. If you do not get an email notifying you that the event is cancelled\, that means the event is still going forward as scheduled. \nBUY TICKETS\n  \n\nAbout Kathleen Ford:\nSince I was a child I had the ability to see colors and images around others in my presence and in my thoughts. I inherently knew information for or about others through the colors and images that surrounded them. I do not remember when or how I realized that this was not how everyone around me was operating. I do not remember a particular conversation or event that made this so\, but from an early age I knew this was something I needed to keep to myself. I grew up in the 1950’s and I believe the consciousness available in the common field at that time contributed to the feelings of shame\, fear\, and separateness that became a way of life for me. I grew up in a large Irish Catholic family that held no limit of drama and chaos from which I withdrew to a quiet space with my friends; Roberta and Sheila. Although Roberta and Sheila were very real to me\, and again I do not know how\, when\, or why\, but I knew not to speak of them to others. Their presence in my life brought me both comfort and anguish…another way that I was different\, and as time went on I held a belief that I did not belong here. \nI tell you this because it sets the stage for the trajectory of my life experiences. I spent most of my life denying who I was and trying to be like everyone else. I believed if I could make the external world look like I was taught it should be\, that I would be alright. I did what I was supposed to do\, I got married\, I had children I got my BSN and became a Registered Nurse. When that did not work\, I got my MBA and became a Healthcare Executive. The experiences went on and on and eventually I became disillusioned with the belief that anything could make me feel like I belonged here. \nMy disillusionment grew into despair\, and I began to ask for and search for help. Over forty years ago I had been introduced to a spiritual path through a 12 step program\, and although at the time I held no belief that this would do anything that would help me\, the seed was planted. Over time I became involved with other spiritual teachings\, all of which contributed to my healing. \n\n\n\nFrom Mindfulness teachings with Jon Kabat Zin\, to A Course in Miracles\, a long list of Spiritual Teachers\, I became a student of the Violet Flame\, and much more. About eight years ago I was introduced to a Spiritual Mentor and Healer\, Kristin Bredimus\, who through pure love and compassion has shown me how to step into my True Self and be seen. About five years ago I became a student of the Energies of Melchizedek and I continue to grow\, heal\, and expand my awareness of the unseen. \nEveryday I experience real joy and real purpose. I humbly share my gifts with the world as part of the whole giving permission to others to do the same\, for the benefit of all. \n\n\n\nCredentials: \n\nIntuitive Artist\, Channel\, Psychic Medium\, Energy Reader\nCertified Health and Life Coach\, Certified Mindfulness Practitioner BSN\, RN\, MBA\, Certified Health Care Management

SUMMARY:Transforming as a Community: Conscious Connection at the Summer Solstice
DESCRIPTION:*Located at our 1848 Barn – 199 South Rd. Kensington\, NH\nThursday\, June 20th from 5pm-7pm\nDoors open at 4pm to explore grounds.\nAuthor Katherine May writes in her hybrid memoire Wintering\, “Plants and animals don’t fight the winter; they don’t pretend it’s not happening and attempt to carry on living the same lives that they lived in the summer. They prepare. They adapt. They perform extraordinary acts of metamorphosis to get them through. Winter is a time of withdrawing from the world\, maximizing scant resources\, carrying out acts of brutal efficiency and vanishing from sight; but that’s where the transformation occurs. Winter is not the death of the life cycle\, but it’s crucible.” \nSpiritual Consultant Kristin Bredimus returns to Alnoba in 2024 to build upon the journey started with her “Healing as a Community” series. In community we began a journey of healing from our collective trauma; learning how to release and alchemize what no longer served us. Together we will share the thoughtful observations of how the last several years have shaped and changed our lives and our world. In community we will co-create a vision for our personal and collective futures. By observing the cycles of nature in the Northern Hemisphere\, we will seek inspiration for our own rebirth and collective transformation. Each event will incorporate ancient spiritual ceremonies\, meditation\, and rituals inspired by the season. \nSummer Solstice \nInspired by the Wheel of the Year Sabbat known as Litha\, we will come together to explore the themes of abundance\, growth\, and divine masculine energy (the energies of courage\, strength\, and action). We will take stock of our lives and the present state of the world. \nThe Summer solstice marks the pinnacle of the Sun’s power to fuel the growing season. On the longest day of the year\, we will gather to amplify the energies of inspired action. \n• Co-creation Intentions for Inspired Action\n• Foraging of Wild Herbs\n• Fire Ceremony\n• Altar Building \nAbout Kristin Bredimus\nKristin is a Certified Spiritual Counsellor\, Certified Angelic Consultant\, and Crystal Master. She was trained in London\, England at the College of Psychic Studies\, the School of Healing & Intuition\, and through Penny King Crystals\, authorized by Philip Permutt\, “The Crystal Healer.” Her spiritual teachers and mentors include author and crystal expert Judy Hall\, author\, and founder of the School of Intuition & Healing; Sue Allen; and author and Hermetic Reiki Master\, Damien Echols. Visit her website to learn more: kristinbredimus.com \n  \nEvent Guidelines:\n• Put 199 South Rd. Kensington\, NH into your GPS – Follow the driveway to the Parking Lot \n• No dogs are permitted on the property. \nRefund and weather policy \nTickets are non-refundable. Please note that all events at Alnoba are rain or shine. If an event is cancelled due to extreme weather you will receive an email notification.

SUMMARY:Speaker Series: Human Chain - How to Save the Planet & Ourselves with Ruchira Gupta
DESCRIPTION:About the event\nThursday\, July 18th from 5PM to 7PM. Doors open at 4PM for time to enjoy a glass of wine from the cash bar and explore Alnoba’s ground and art. \n“I share my story of how I inadvertently became a leader in a global movement against sex-trafficking\, how I felt overwhelmed again and again– on the verge of giving up – and how I overcame devastating obstacles for a world free of sexual violence-girl by girl and law by law. \nI am an activist\, who was a journalist. As a reporter I stumbled upon rows of villages with missing girls in Nepal and went on to tell their story in a documentary. I won an Emmy for outstanding investigative journalism and decided to use the award to make a difference. \nI did not look for a leader from above\, nor wait for a golden future or depend on someone to create a better world on some other planet. I created a human chain. And you can too. \nThis book is a simple roadmap for how to do it. It is for all the women\, men and young people who want to reclaim their bodies and planet earth from plunder and domination. You might find some useful clues in my story.” – Ruchira Gupta \nMore about the speaker\nWINNER OF OUR 2023 ALNOBA MOMENT OF TRUTH AWARD \nRuchira Gupta is an Emmy winning journalist and founder of the anti sex trafficking NGO Apne Aap\, that empowers women and girls to exit systems of prostitution. I Kick and I Fly is her debut fiction novel and will be available for purchase at our event. \nShe has been awarded the French Ordre National du Mérite\, the Clinton Global Citizen Award\, and the UN NGO CSW Woman of Distinction\, among other honors\, for her contribution to the establishment of the UN Trafficking Fund for Survivors\, the passage of the US Trafficking Victims Protection Act and her grassroots activism with Apne Aap. She also holds a Doctor of Humane Letters degree from Smith College. She has co-written a book with Gloria Steinem\, “As if Women Matter” and edited two anthologies\, “River of Flesh” and “Renu’s letters to Birju Babu”. \nRuchira has worked for the United Nations in Nepal\, Thailand\, Kosovo\, Iran\, and the USA. She occasionally teaches at the New York University’s Center for Global Affairs as a visiting faculty. \nRuchira divides her time between New York and Forbesganj\, her childhood home in the foothills of the Himalayas\, where she furthers the work of Apne Aap and paints her mother’s garden. \n  \nBUY TICKETS\n

SUMMARY:Speaker Series: Doc Hendley: Turning Wine To Water And Other Modern Day Miracles
DESCRIPTION:About the event\nThursday\, August 22nd from 5PM to 7PM. Doors open at 4PM for time to enjoy a glass of wine from the cash bar and explore Alnoba’s ground and art. \nOn a journey from singing in bars to working in Darfur\, Sudan\, and then leading Wine To Water from a dream to a reality\, Doc realized that ordinary people can do extraordinary things. With a team of passionate individuals\, Wine To Water has made a significant impact on the global water crisis through the power of community. \nJoin us for an inspiring keynote with Wine To Water founder\, Doc Hendley\, as he shares a simple yet profound principle: making a difference with what you have. From humble beginnings to leading an international fundraising organization\, Hendley demonstrates the transformative power of relationships in breaking down barriers. As our Strategic Partner and a cherished friend of Alnoba and the Lewis Family\, we’re thrilled to have him in our Speaker Series for an open conversation where you can ask questions and engage! \nMore about the speaker\nWINNER OF OUR 2022 ALAN E. LEWIS MORAL COURAGE IN LEADERSHIP AWARD \nDoc Hendley is the Founder and President of Wine To Water\, a non-profit organization that serves in communities to provide clean water for people in need around the world. Doc first envisioned the concept of Wine To Water while bartending and playing music in nightclubs in Raleigh\, North Carolina. With the money raised\, Hendley traveled to Darfur\, Sudan\, in 2004 and began installing water systems for victims of government-supported genocide. \nDoc was selected as one of the Top Ten CNN Heroes in 2009\, chosen by a panel of judges including General Colin Powell\, Whoopi Goldberg\, Ted Turner\, and Sir Elton John. \nIn 2012\, he published\, “Wine to Water: A Bartender’s Quest to Bring Clean Water to the World\,” (Avery: Penguin\, Jan 2012). It is a captivating story of an ordinary bartender who’s changing the world through clean water\, and the book is a foundation of college courses at several universities across the country. \nThousands have been inspired by Doc’s story\, and Wine To Water has grown from one man’s mission into a global movement for clean water. Wine To Water has reached over 2 Million people and worked in 50+ countries. \nWine To Water has saved thousands of lives by providing humanity’s most basic need\, clean water. Doc speaks primarily through the Wine To Water Filter Build Program\, which provides an enriching\, hands-on\, socially responsible experience for companies and organizations to assemble filters and engage in the world’s water crisis. \n  \nBUY TICKETS\n

SUMMARY:Transforming as a Community: Conscious Connection at the Fall Equinox
DESCRIPTION:*Located at our 1848 Barn – 199 South Rd. Kensington\, NH\nMonday\, September 23rd from 5pm-7pm\nDoors open at 4pm to explore grounds.\nAuthor Katherine May writes in her hybrid memoire Wintering\, “Plants and animals don’t fight the winter; they don’t pretend it’s not happening and attempt to carry on living the same lives that they lived in the summer. They prepare. They adapt. They perform extraordinary acts of metamorphosis to get them through. Winter is a time of withdrawing from the world\, maximizing scant resources\, carrying out acts of brutal efficiency and vanishing from sight; but that’s where the transformation occurs. Winter is not the death of the life cycle\, but it’s crucible.” \nSpiritual Consultant Kristin Bredimus returns to Alnoba in 2024 to build upon the journey started with her “Healing as a Community” series. In community we began a journey of healing from our collective trauma; learning how to release and alchemize what no longer served us. Together we will share the thoughtful observations of how the last several years have shaped and changed our lives and our world. In community we will co-create a vision for our personal and collective futures. By observing the cycles of nature in the Northern Hemisphere\, we will seek inspiration for our own rebirth and collective transformation. Each event will incorporate ancient spiritual ceremonies\, meditation\, and rituals inspired by the season. \nFall Equinox \nInspired by the Wheel of the Year Sabbat known as Mabon\, we will explore the themes of gratitude\, balance\, preparation\, and embracing the dark. We will explore practices to induce deep relaxation as well as practical tools for establishing balance in our lives. \n\nExploration of Responsibilities and Priorities of the Spirit\nForaging for Altar Decorations\nCo-creation of Prayers for the Earth and Humanity\nRibbon Tree Ceremony\n\nAbout Kristin Bredimus\nKristin is a Certified Spiritual Counsellor\, Certified Angelic Consultant\, and Crystal Master. She was trained in London\, England at the College of Psychic Studies\, the School of Healing & Intuition\, and through Penny King Crystals\, authorized by Philip Permutt\, “The Crystal Healer.” Her spiritual teachers and mentors include author and crystal expert Judy Hall\, author\, and founder of the School of Intuition & Healing; Sue Allen; and author and Hermetic Reiki Master\, Damien Echols. Visit her website to learn more: kristinbredimus.com \n  \nEvent Guidelines:\n• Put 199 South Rd. Kensington\, NH into your GPS – Follow the driveway to the Parking Lot \n• No dogs are permitted on the property. \nRefund and weather policy \nTickets are non-refundable.

Based at Alnoba\, we have helped hundreds of leaders from around the world strengthen their teams and drive immediate and lasting change for over 30 years. \nIn this session\, we’ll review what over three decades of results have proven to be The Top 5 Keys to Leading High Performing Teams. You’ll learn the importance of building a culture of growth – an environment that people can thrive in and reach their full potential where leaders model the behaviors that lead to success and encourage their teams to speak openly and take risks to drive results. See how leveraging the brain power of a team will lead to innovation and walk away armed with time-tested tools to drive accountability through effective goal setting. \nPinnacle is New England’s top resource in leadership & team development. Since 1993\, we’ve built up a proven record of results with leaders from 80+ countries. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Danielle Giannone\nSenior Vice President of Pinnacle Leadership & Team Development \nAn expert in leadership\, team development and coaching\, Danielle has spent the past twenty years transforming the performance of numerous organizations worldwide. Driven by her passion to help people reach their full potential\, she has advised leaders at all levels and helped build high performing teams on six continents. A skilled facilitator and trainer\, she pushes leaders to see the biggest obstacles that stand in their way\, dig into the hot issues that hold them back and find the courage to lead effectively. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Danny Tyrrell\nVice President 0f Pinnacle Leadership & Team Development \nDanny has dedicated the past 15 years to leading diverse teams across various industries\, including international travel and health & wellness technology. At Pinnacle\, he utilizes his executive background to develop courageous leaders and effective teams. He focuses on goal clarity\, identification of the top barriers that are in a team’s way and alignment on key priorities \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Calling in the Call Out Culture” by Loretta J. Ross\nDr. Ross’s presentation will challenge the Call Out Culture of social justice movements and academic spaces in order to build a united human rights movement. The teach in will cover 5 topics: 1) Understanding what Calling In/Calling Out is; 2) Exploring why people should care about building a human rights movement through Calling In; 3) Discussing what it feels like to call people in; 4) Examining what Calling In looks like; 5) Learning where\, when and how to use Calling In techniques in the future. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Loretta J. Ross\nActivist\, Public Intellectual\, Professor \nLoretta’s activism began at 16 when she was tear-gassed at a demonstration as a first-year student at Howard University in 1970. She was one of the first African American women to direct a rape crisis center in the 1970’s\, where she used her own story of sexual assault to facilitate a conversation with incarcerated rapists\, teaching them Black feminist theory. \nAs part of a 50-year history in social justice activism\, she was the national coordinator of the SisterSong Women of Color Reproductive Justice Collective from 2005–2012 and co-created the theory of Reproductive Justice in 1994. \nRoss’s mentor\, the legendary C.T. Vivian\, told her when she started her job\, “When you ask people to give up hate\, you have to be there for them when they do.” And so\, she was. She monitored hate crimes\, accompanied Floyd Cochran\, national spokesman for Aryan Nation\, on his atonement tour and taught anti racism to some whose families were members of the KKK. \nRoss was national co-director of the April 25\, 2004\, March for Women’s Lives in Washington D.C.\, the largest protest march in U.S. history at that time with 1.15 million participants. She founded the National Center for Human Rights \nShe is a 2022 recipient of the Alnoba Moment of Truth Award for Leadership for Gender Equity and the McArthur Prize\, as well as a 2023 Inductee to the National Women’s Hall of Fame \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo We Have The Tools To Abandon Fossil Fuels?\nTransitioning society from polluting\, single-use fossil fuels to renewable energy combined with battery storage is one of the greatest challenges\, and wealth-creation opportunities\, of our time. Most people do not realize how rapidly clean technology solutions are progressing to harness and store abundant wind\, solar and hydro power. \nTo date\, the Inflation Reduction Act has unleashed more than $700 billion in U.S. clean energy investments in mining and manufacturing\, positioning America to compete with China’s historical dominance of solar\, wind and electric vehicle manufacturing. \nFrom his front row seat in the clean energy industry\, ReVision Energy co-founder Phil Coupe is witnessing astonishing clean energy progress that was unimaginable 20 years ago when he started the 100% employee-owned company. Phil’s talk will emphatically answer one of the most urgent questions facing humanity\, while providing insights on where the next trillion dollars of wealth are being created in the U.S. economy. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Phil Coupe\nCo-Founder\, ReVision Energy \nAs co-founder and aspirational visionary\, Phil focuses on leadership\, business strategy\, communications and the national security implications of over-reliance on finite fossil fuels.

Strong women. Stronger world.\nJoin this conversation as two brave and brilliant Moment of Truth Award recipients share lessons from their work to keep girls and women safe\, strong and on paths for success. Their experiences range from Maryam Montague’s groundbreaking work on a new menstrual solution to tackle period poverty\, with a focus on the global south\, and her program to keep girls in school and stop underage marriages in Morocco and Syria to Christa Big Canoe’s service as Lead Commission Counsel for Canada’s National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls\, as well as her current work to for truth and accountability on behalf of their families. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Maryam Montague\nFounder\, Project Soar \nMaryam Montague is trying to stop child marriage of teen girls in Morocco and Syria\, as well as advance menstrual rights using a new menstrual solution\, she and her colleagues developed called the Soar Hurya. \nIn 2013\, she created Project Soar in Morocco and later added sites in Syria and Uganda. Project Soar envisions a world where every marginalized teen girl knows her value\, voice\, body\, rights and path – and seeks to empower teen girls to be the leaders of today and tomorrow. They provide empowerment coaching through a 25-workshop curriculum based on neuroscience\, sustainable menstrual health kits\, and advocacy training on teen girl issues. It’s free for the girls\, but to take part\, they must pledge to stay in school. \nPrior to founding Project Soar\, Montague had a 25-year career as a humanitarian aid worker\, including stints at the National Democratic Institute\, an international nonprofit group. She worked on training women to run for office and prisoner rights among other issues. \nThe non-profit program started at Montague’s boutique hotel\, Peacock Pavilions\, that she and her husband built on an eight-acre olive grove on the outskirts of Marrakech\, with the mission statement\, Be Good\, Make Good\, Do Good. \nTheir replicable\, scalable model has allowed Project Soar to scale to 138+ chapters nationwide in Morocco and was successfully piloted in five sites in Uganda and four sites in Northwest Syria. To date\, Project Soar has provided 24\,925 hours of empowerment. With an active network of 6\,338+ Soar Girls\, Project Soar is growing the teen girl movement. Their results are impressive. \n\n100% of Soar girls plan to go to the next grade level\n89% passed the school year\nLess than 1% became child brides\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Christa Big Canoe\nLegal Advocacy Director\, Aboriginal Legal Services\, Toronto\, Canada \nRight now\, four out of every five Indigenous American women are affected by violence\, and are murdered at rates more than 10 times the national average. By far the majority of those crimes are committed by individuals from outside the Native American community\, often falling through jurisdictional cracks. It’s a crisis that demands action–a crisis that prompted Christa Big Canoe to take the kind of bold action that leads to big impact. \nChrista is the Legal Advocacy Director for Aboriginal Legal Services (ALS)\, a nonprofit organization that works with the families of missing and murdered indigenous women (MMIW) navigate the legal system to find justice for their loved ones. \nIn 2017\, Christa was appointed Senior and then Lead Commission Council for Canada’s National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls. Christa took a two and a half year leave from her work at ALS to lead thirteen Indigenous lawyers\, twenty-six statement gatherers and a support team responsible for collecting truth from survivors and families. The testimonies from “truth finding gatherings” have created one of the largest evidentiary records in Canada. \nChrista also represented six of the seven families in the “Seven Youth Inquest” in Thunder Bay. This investigation of the deaths of seven Indigenous students resulted in 145 federal and provincial recommendations to improve accountability\, safety and education outcomes for Nishnawbe Aski Nation youths. While at Legal Aid Ontario\, she led the province-wide Aboriginal Justice Strategy aimed at removing barriers to the legal system for indigenous people. \nChrista’s unwavering courage to confront this critical issue and take action to bring about real change makes her an exceptional leader. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom One Man’s Mission to a Worldwide Movement for Clean Water – A Conversation with Doc Hendley\nPlease don’t tell Doc it can’t be done – because he will not rest until he finds a way to get water to the most in need and in the hardest places to reach in the midst of extreme conditions\, including war zones\, and natural disaster areas. \nDoc Hendley dreamed up the concept of Wine To Water while bartending and playing music in nightclubs around Raleigh\, NC. \nIn February 2004\, Doc held his first fundraiser. And by August\, he was living halfway around the globe in Sudan\, Africa installing water systems for victims of the government-supported genocide. His life would never be the same. After spending one year in Darfur\, Doc returned home. The haunting memories of what he had witnessed drove him to continue building the organization he started with that first fundraiser in a bar. Doc was determined to provide clean water for the world. \nIn 2007\, after working two jobs and volunteering his time for three years\, Doc launched Wine To Water. His dream of fighting the world’s water crisis became a reality. But that was just the beginning. In 2009\, Doc was named as a top ten CNN Hero for that year\, and the ripples continued to grow. Soon Doc was speaking to packed houses\, including two TEDx events and national media outlets. Thousands were inspired by his story and Wine To Water grew from one man’s mission into a movement for clean water. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Doc Hendley\nFounder\, Wine to Water \nDoc Hendley is the founder and president of Wine To Water\, a non-profit that radically transformed the process of bringing clean water to people in need anywhere in the world. \nA musician and former bartender\, Hendley launched Wine To Water in 2004 while bartending and playing music in nightclubs in Raleigh\, North Carolina. At that time\, he traveled to Darfur\, Sudan and with the money raised\, began installing water systems for victims of government-supported genocide. \nDoc is a frequent speaker\, and often leads Wine To Water filter build programs. Filter builds are hands-on\, socially responsible experiences for companies and organizations to assemble filters and make their own strides in alleviating the world’s water crisis. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT AFTERNOON TEACH INS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Top 5 Keys to High Performing Teams – The Pinnacle Model\nAt Pinnacle\, we believe strong leaders make stronger communities and high performing teams allow great leaders to have the greatest impact.
