These are the same tools we bring into prisons\, but they’re just as valuable for anyone navigating relationships\, communication\, or personal challenges. \nFTC offers programs inside prisons that transform communities from the inside out. By connecting with each person’s innate capacity for compassion—regardless of where they are in life—our programs foster healing and personal growth both behind prison walls and in the communities our program participants and volunteers return to. \nWorking in small groups of three (“trios”)– the heart of our practice – we’ll have the opportunity to listen deeply\, share authentically\, and support one another. \nWe look forward to coming together with you all to continue our commitment to healing and growing as individuals and collectively. \n  \nDate: Sunday\, July 27\, 2025\nTime: 1:30pm – 3:30pm PT\nLocation: Tarzana Community Center\nRegistration: Private Community Event (Limited Seating RSVP to Reserve Your Seat) \n\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”66″ bottom_padding=”66″ text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all” el_id=”register”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/4″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_highlighted_text color_type=”regular” highlight_color=”#6a3179″ style=”full_text” highlight_expansion=”default” text_direction=”default”]\nRSVP HERE\n[/nectar_highlighted_text][divider line_type=”Small Line” line_alignment=”center” line_thickness=”2″ divider_color=”extra-color-1″ custom_height=”20″ custom_line_width=”50″]Sorry.

We’ll be working with a selected tool/exercise in groups of three\, called ‘trios.’ \nYou’ll have the opportunity to reflect and gain insight into what’s present in your life\, and create space for others as they explore and share what’s surfacing for them. Trio work is very powerful and the primary format of our in-prison programs. \nWe also welcome our seasoned volunteers to this evening. Come and experience the depth and beauty of this community. We are so grateful for your support\, wisdom\, and your service as an anchor for these trios. This evening is a great opportunity to share FTC and the trio experience with your friends and families. \nWe look forward to coming together digitally as a community to continue our commitment to healing and growing both as individuals and collectively. \nWe’ll see you there! \nDate: Thursday\, August 21\, 2025\nTime: 6:30pm – 8:30pm PT\nTuition: None.

El Molino\nPasadena\, CA 91101 \nFacilitators: Michael Lattimore\, Nicole Robbins\, and Eddie Torres \nWe invite you to join us for an in-person afternoon of connection and reflection. \nTogether\, we’ll create a supportive space to process change and uncertainty\, share our stories\, and hold space for one another. \nWe often speak of the space between stimulus and response—that precious moment where our power to choose our next action resides. \nHere\, we’ll have the opportunity to practice this principle\, strengthening our ability to show up with courage\, compassion\, and connection—for ourselves and for our community. \nWorking in small groups of three (“trios”)– the heart of our practice – we’ll have the opportunity to listen deeply\, share authentically\, and support one another. This simple yet profound format has been the foundation of our work both in prisons and in the community. \nFrom people opening their homes to neighbors checking on neighbors\, we see the profound truth that even in circumstances we didn’t choose\, we can choose how we show up for each other. \nWe look forward to coming together as a community to continue our commitment to healing and growing as individuals and collectively. \nDate: Sunday\, August 31\, 2025\nTime: 1:00pm – 3:00pm PT\nLocation: In-Person\nRegistration: Free and open to all.

These are the same tools we bring into prisons\, but they’re just as valuable for anyone navigating relationships\, communication\, or personal challenges. \nFTC offers programs inside prisons that transform communities from the inside out. By connecting with each person’s innate capacity for compassion—regardless of where they are in life—our programs foster healing and personal growth both behind prison walls and in the communities our program participants and volunteers return to. \nWorking in small groups of three (“trios”)– the heart of our practice – we’ll have the opportunity to listen deeply\, share authentically\, and support one another. \nWe look forward to coming together with you all to continue our commitment to healing and growing as individuals and collectively. \n  \nDate: Sunday\, October 26\, 2025\nTime: 4 pm – 6 pm PT\nLocation: Tarzana Community Center\nRegistration: Open to All \n\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” top_padding=”66″ bottom_padding=”66″ text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all” el_id=”register”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/4″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_highlighted_text color_type=”regular” highlight_color=”#6a3179″ style=”full_text” highlight_expansion=”default” text_direction=”default”]\nRSVP HERE\n[/nectar_highlighted_text][divider line_type=”Small Line” line_alignment=”center” line_thickness=”2″ divider_color=”extra-color-1″ custom_height=”20″ custom_line_width=”50″]Sorry.
