National Training Director; OCF

One Circle Foundation transforms lives through circles.

Girls Circle and The Council for Boys and Young Men are gender-responsive, research-based circle models for girls, boys, LGBQ and gender non-conforming youth, that promote safe and healthy relationships, build assets, and promote authentic diverse identities and capacities on the adolescent journey toward adulthood.

Women’s Circle is a gender-responsive and and gender non-conforming support group approach for women to share, explore, build skills, and encourage one another to live authentically in mind, body, heart, and spirit.

One Circle Foundation seeks a National Training Director to further our mission to promote resiliency and health relationships by offering circle program models that transform lives. One Circle Foundation recognizes that healthy relationships are the core element to a healthy individual, family, society, and world.

Since 1997, OCF has trained, consulted, and developed educational curricula to equip service providers around the nation and internationally to implement research-based circle program models and best practice evidence-based approaches to increase capacities and build healthy relationships. Our reach is to all youth serving sectors to include: education, juvenile justice, child services, behavioral health, community based programs and ministries.

One Circle Foundation prioritizes diversity and the value it brings to the workplace and the work with intersectional individuals and audiences. We practice and utilize an expansive mindset and approach in all our work.

We are relational.

We recognize the quality of our relationships with others as the most important aspect of our work, and as paramount to growth, learning, health and success.

We honor everyone’s wisdom.

Everyone’s experiences and viewpoints are valid and deserving of respect.

We recognize that we haven’t lived all the same experiences as others have lived.

We are humble.

We don’t have all the answers, and we know we’re not perfect.

We laugh and have fun.

We laugh at ourselves, use humor, and encourage playfulness.

We care for others and we care for ourselves.

Taking care of our bodies, minds, hearts, and spirits is key to our healthy relationships.

We view gender and culture as integral aspects of identity.

Gender and culture have meaning and impact in multiple dimensions of one’s life.

We are communicative.

We tell people - verbally and nonverbally – what to expect from us and from the training.

We emphasize strengths.

It’s the paradigm shift – seeing others for their strengths, gifts, and potentials.

We are accountable.

We own our work, words, and deeds.

We recognize the power of our voices, and use them intentionally.

Our experiences count; our messages have an impact when they come from our hearts.
