We are committed to making all of our programs available to as many environmental and social change leaders as possible. All of our workshop prices include room and board.

Registrants may cancel with forfeit of $50 registration fee up to 30 days before the workshop start date. Registrants may transfer that $50 registration fee and use it towards another program within one year if they wish.

If cancelling 30 to 14 days out from program, registrants may transfer all monies paid to a future program (within one year), plus additional 10% administrative fee; OR get a refund, minus $50 registration fee and 10% administrative fee.

If a registrant cancels with less than 14 days’ notice, we will consider all monies paid a tax-deductible donation and will issue a letter of contribution to the registrant.
