Proposals for Action
Holistic Check-in
As the meeting begins, members briefly report on what they have been doing or thinking about, if anything, with regard to self-development, building community, and political action. Regardless of their political or religious perspective, different kinds of groups can use this method. These groups include:
● a committee within an activist organization;
● a book club;
● a religious organization’s social action committee or Bible study group;
● a workgroup at a socially responsible business;
● a group whose members belong to various activist organizations or do their activism as unaffiliated individuals.
Prior to the check-in, the group might allow a moment or two of silence for members to reflect, meditate, or pray.
