What is the Talk Story Program?

At Puna Rising, we are excited to offer a special program that brings people together to share stories and connect with one another. Our “Talk Story” program, led by Dawn Hurwitz.

Through our Talk Story program, participants will have the opportunity to connect with others in their community, share their experiences, and learn from one another. Whether it’s discussing a shared interest, exploring different perspectives, or simply getting to know one another, our Talk Story program is a wonderful way to build connections and strengthen our community.

We believe that by coming together and sharing our stories, we can create a more compassionate, empathetic, and inclusive community. So if you’re looking for a space to connect with others and engage in meaningful conversations. If you would like to see a topic covered, contact us immediately @ hello@punarising.com
