Module 2 outlines how conducting a community dialogue is the foundation for establishing a guided path towards healing by refocusing culture as foundational to wellness. It provides a set of guidelines for facilitators to use in conducting community dialogues to help the community envision and articulate its unique version of community resilience based upon their culture, history, and experiences of resistance to settler colonialism. In addition to assisting a community in collaboratively articulating a picture of community resilience, these community dialogues will also provide communities an opportunity to brainstorm the differences that arise from centering resilience in networks of care instead of centering trauma. Finally, the community-generated picture of resilience articulated in these community dialogues will serve as the center of a community-designed framework for implementing resilience-informed care in TCW programming.
Learning Objectives for Module 2

- Generalized goals of community resilience dialogues.
