Online as learning tracks are not multiplatform. Our dream for you is that the learning to be more pedagogically appropriate for the platform.

Information about Care, Covenant and Tech Teams at Institute:

Care and Covenant Teams at Ministry Days

Care & Covenant Team: Phone #: 1-833-UUMAMin (1-833-886-2646)

Care & Covenant Team members provide presence and containers for people who need a place to be witnessed and heard and held when feelings and troubles arise; they provide support around a range of personal and professional concerns. We’ve learned that sometimes people seek the spiritual care of someone on the Care Team sparked by something in our programming, but just as often people may have an experience at an event that activates something painful and challenging that they are experiencing in another context.  Care Team members are available for care in the moment and for help in planning what additional support our colleagues may need to put in place in the future.   

Care & Covenant Team members also hold space for people who are experiencing a break in covenant. There are aspects of this work that are similar to the work of the Care Team, but Covenant Team members may go further in helping people identify what they need when covenant is broken and may even make initial efforts to call someone back into covenant when that seems needed and appropriate. Covenant Team members can look to the Guidelines for examples of how we might interact with colleagues and support repair for those who have been harmed.
