CONVERSATION CIRCLES for JANUARY!
TOPIC: Conscientious Objection: How can Quaker Meetings support our youth?

REGISTRATION for both times is on QREC website:

"This conversation circle will explore conscientious objection for Quaker teens. Curt Torell, author of 'Conscientious Objection: Is this for You?,' will present the current state of U.S. Selective Service registration and how a CO claim can be made. Participants will engage in conversation, sharing their own experiences based on the queries below. Curt will then share curriculum ideas from his soon-to-be released revision of, 'Conscientious Objection: Is This for You? Discerning, Deciding, Documenting, and Defending a CO Claim with Selective Service.'
The curriculum is published through Quaker House, a peace witness in Fayetteville, NC, where Curt has served on the board for a number of years. In the early 1970s, Curt worked at a draft center in Rochester, NY."
