Mike Root, from the USA, informed us about the following upcomming international event:

CCI  USA Annual Workshop, Tuesday, May 9 - Sunday, May 14, 2023

You are invited to join us for

• CCI-USA's Annual International Workshop
• Date: Tues., May 9 to Sun., May 14  2023
• Location: Wisdom House Retreat Center in Litchfield, Connecticut (www.wisdomhouse.org)
• Theme: Lights, Camera, Life Action!

Please consider joining us! Bursary help is available if money is a concern -- we can also help with local housing and transportation needs before and after the workshop. Two important updates about the workshop:

• We will NO longer require a PCR lab test prior to attendance at the workshop. We still plan to do daily antigen testing (self-administered nasal swabs) prior to and at the workshop. We did that last year, and it went very smoothly -- organizers supplied the tests, and participants simply added that to their morning wake-up routine. For many of us, doing what we can to reduce the risk of transmitting or catching Covid makes deciding to attend CCI much easier -- especially because many of us are looking forward to real hugs, and have no interest in social distancing!

• We'll also be offering Fundamentals Part 1 at the workshop for newcomers to co-counseling! Fundamentals participants will share circles, meals, and some other activities with workshop participants, while learning and practicing Fundamentals in morning and afternoon sessions. Fundamentals spaces are limited -- anyone interested should contact Judy Hartling (judyahartling@gmail.com or 413-454-1585) as soon as possible.

More information about the workshop and Fundamentals class can be downloaded from below. If you have any questions about the workshop, please let Mike Root or Kathryn Bass know.

(Anyone interested in Fundamentals should contact Judy Hartling before registering -- judyahartling@gmail.com.)

We hope to see you there!

What is a CCI Workshop?

A CCI Workshop is a multi-day space where the CCI Co-Counseling community comes to connect, celebrate each other, and grow. There will be circles with the entire community from around the world. There will be opportunities to do paired sessions.
There will be 5 to 6 person support groups that meet daily to support each other through Co-Counseling.

There will also be offerings throughout each day called topic groups, which are 90ish minute sessions that may or may not involve Co-Counseling but generally involve personal growth, mind, body, spirit, or community. Some topic groups will be planned in, and others can be offered as the workshop goes along. This is a peer community, and everyone is encouraged to contribute. This results in a co-created organic workshop that evolves as the days go by.

European CCI in England

All CCI co-counsellors are warmly invited to the 2023 European summer event. It is in the south of England, at Avon Tyrrell, a beautiful historic house on the edge of the New Forest National Park, and 7 miles from the sandy beaches of the south coast. Accommodation is available in shared rooms, with a few twins and singles, or camping in the beautiful surrounding woodland. The event is fully catered, with options for eat-anything, vegetarian and vegan diets – if you have more specific dietary needs, please detail your requirements in your booking and we (and the venue) will do what we can.

The theme of the 2023 event is RENEWAL

To Our International Friends

As you may know, Bob Sawyer died unexpectedly of a heart attack on December 16, 2020. Bob was a long-time co-counselor, an active volunteer and leader in CCI-USA,and an enthusiastic attendee at co-counseling workshops around the world. Many of you knew Bob, and know his wife, Dency Sargent (one of the founders of CCI), and his stepdaughter Cat (Cathy) Sargent.

On behalf of Dency and Cathy, we invite you to join members of the worldwide CCI community (and some of Bob's friends and family) as we celebrate Bob's life and mark his passing in an on-line gathering. It will be held via Zoom on Saturday, January 30, 2021 at:
2:00 p.m East Coast U.S. time (EST)
7:00 p.m. UK time
8:00 p.m. European time
9:00 p.m. Israeli time
and 8:00 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 31 New Zealand time

We expect the gathering to run 90-120 minutes. Please log on a few minutes early if you can, although you are welcome to join late or leave early if needed. Part of the gathering will be in small groups, so everyone will have a chance to hear and share remembrances of Bob. There will also be an opportunity for a few people to share brief remembrances of Bob in the large group -- if you would like to be one of those people, please let Judy Hartling know as soon as possible, as space for this will be limited. (Email Judy at judyahartling@gmail.com.)

Here is the link to join the gathering:

We hope you can join us on the 30th (31st if you're in New Zealand) to remember and celebrate Bob. If you are not familiar with Zoom, please contact Judy BEFORE the 30th -- she'll be happy to guide you through how to download and get started on Zoom. If you have any other questions, please email Michael or Judy.

With warm wishes and a full heart --
