Any trainings on this calendar for 2021 may be hosted independent of the UUA and UCC. Learn more about the status of OWL from Melanie Davis, OWL Program Manager.
Please subscribe to the New England Region newsletter to be notified when registration opens. OWL Facilitator Trainings are also held in other regions across the U.S. year round.
Registration Fees
While contributions from congregations to our Region and Association make it possible for regional staff to do our work, event registration fees are necessary to cover the costs of individual events. We know that not all individuals are in a position to pay these fees. Since the learning is on behalf of the congregation, we assume that congregational leaders will select and financially support participants to come. However, if these fees are prohibitive even to the congregation, please be in touch with us at newengland@uua.org. We do not want cost to keep anyone away.
