PATC: Innovate - Day 2 Wrap up

Being a storyteller himself, Gabe impressed upon us that stories have the power to incite change and that everyone's story is important. As supporters, he encouraged us to be present - a captive audience, if you will. Those that we support may benefit from sharing their stories, and those that hear them may benefit, as well. So, we challenge you to encourage people to share their stories by, most importantly, listening (REALLY listening) and validating those experiences.
Don't know how to get the ball rolling? Check out the stories on OC87's website or the personal stories collected for PATC on MyODP and read them to the person you support. It may motivate and inspire them to share their story.
And, don't forget, you have stories to tell too!
