Communication Across Barriers launched the October Beegle Poverty Immersion Institute with registration open at https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/s93ejbg

"If you are judging, you cannot connect; if you cannot connect, you cannot communicate; if you cannot communicate, how are you going to do your job?" Dr. Donna Beegle For over two and a half decades, Communication Across Barriers (CAB), a national and international gold standard consulting firm, has been serving professionals and entire communities who are interested in breaking the cycle of poverty in America. Dr. Donna Beegle - poverty expert, life-changing speaker, and recognized author - launched the company to provide meaningful, memorable and realistic strategies for individuals, organizations and communities to make a real difference in moving and keeping people out of poverty. Our team provides keynote presentations, trainings (in-person and on-line) from two hours to four days, organizational assessments, customized action planning, community development and educational materials. CAB-produced resources include books, learning guides, articles, research, organized games and activities, as well as custom-designed curriculum available to all organizations we work with. CAB, under the passionate commitment of Dr. Beegle, is dedicated to broadening and improving opportunities for people who live in the war zone of poverty and assisting communities and organizations to “fight poverty, not the people who live in it.” (Dr. Beegle) From Dr. Beegle: "My education, my work, and my passion are to help people from all races who are trapped in poverty. I want them to have genuine options for lifelong success. This can only happen if the voices of those struggling with poverty can be heard and their perspectives understood. Poverty is resolvable, however, making a difference for people who live in the crisis of poverty requires a paradigm shift. A shift that moves us beyond stereotypes and judgment to a deeper understanding of the causes of poverty and its impact on human beings. With this awareness, we can work together to provide genuine opportunities for people to move out of poverty." -- Donna Beegle
