6 July 1, 1997 SMOKE SIGNALS (Bemmwmiiuw True Colors returning July 1 1 People who attended the TRUE COLORS WORKSHOP on March 7, learned they might be "passionate blues, fun loving oranges, orderly golds, or thinking, problem solving greens." The workshop, which is highly interactive, is returning on July 11. Training is targeted for parents, staff and individuals, who work with a wide variety of clients. True Colors uses temperament categories on the Meyers-Briggs (MBTI) and is adaptation of work by David Keirsey and Marilyn Bates, Please Understand Me. Workshop goals enable participants to recognize and appreciate the strengths and pref erences of themselves and others, and enhance communication. The workshop is fast paced, innovative and fun. Trainers for the True Colors workshop are Ms. Heather Alberts, Ms. Carole Ferlazzo, and Ms. Beverly Burns, of the Center for Education Development. Please join us at this fun filled workshop. To sign up, contact Ms. Hollie Larsen at 879 2275 or 1-800-422-0232, ext. 2275.
