It has been said that we often treat the ones we love with the least amount of kindness. Is that true? Or is it perhaps more true that we are just less careful with our words and how we say it?

Come to Pelangi Pride Centre (PPC) this November and learn ways to better communicate with partners, family members and friends. Learn tips on how to let the ones you love know that you care about them, in a basic but difficult activity: communication.

Topics Covered include:

• I Hear You... Are You Listening To Me?
• Fighting the Good Fight
• In Praise of our Partners
• Being Your own Best Friend
• Question & Answer Session
