    Survey: Return to Practice - Together Center 

    Planning for our online platform

    Thank you for taking the time to complete our survey! Any information shared on this form will be used solely to better tailor our online platform to meet everyone's needs. 

    As an extension of our Return to Practice group, a local Richmond-based community, we will be building an online platform to support the development of deeper connection and engagement with each other called “Together Center”. The tagline is: “A space for compassionate learning, unlearning, community building, and engagement - at the intersection of mindfulness and social & environmental justice.”  

    The way the platform will work is that we will be able to create a number of different channels for ongoing content/resource sharing and discussion. We are working to set this up before inviting everyone (everyone who is interested, that is - of course this is a voluntary membership of $12/year) to enter. Since this is a collaborative effort, we'd like to hear from you about what channels are of most interest to you!

    Please take a look at the channel topics below and let us know which are of interest. At the end you will have the opportunity to suggest other topics we didn't include:
