Treatment Professionals in Alumni Services (TPAS)

The Power of Gifts in Community Building Inspired by Peter Block's "Six Conversations", the Gifts Conversation is a powerful reminder to shift our focus from deficiencies to contributions. At TPAS, we carry this philosophy into the work we do with alumni and the communities we build. Today, we ask you: What is the positive feedback you receive that still surprises you? Take a moment to reflect on the unique gifts you bring to the table. By sharing and acknowledging these gifts, we strengthen our recovery communities together.
