The Food for Thought Series consists of free monthly workshops presented by members of the CCA community that reflect the depth and breadth of relevant topics such as sustainability, social responsibility, social justice, etc., with practical application in a real world setting (conflict resolution, team dynamics, etc.).
We welcome engaging workshop proposals!
Topics may range from life skills such as bike maintenance techniques to a discussion about the use of civil discourse. You present and/or facilitate a meaningful session, and we handle the logistics—including providing lunch.

Selection Process
Based on the completed Food for Thought Proposal, each session will be evaluated on the quality of the topic as it pertains to cultivating global and ethical citizenship through self-awareness, life skills, and meaningful discourse.
Criteria
There are three main criteria which each proposed session will be evaluated on: 1) Informative—sharing relevant and meaningful information that resonates with your audience. 2) Engaging—being genuine through open-ended questions, personal anecdotes, and body language. 3) Call to action—inspiring and preparing the next generation of leaders.
