How Could we Forget About Pratt?!?
We missed a post about the workshop that took place in Pratt, KS. I have no clue how this might have happened because Pratt proved to be an unforgettable group. They were all very forward thinking and witty, which made for a productive and entertaining workshop. Blythe Family Fitness, Pratt Community College, Pratt County Health Department, Pratt Family Practice, Pratt Regional Medical Center, The Peoples Bank, and USD 382 were all in attendance and did not fail in keeping us on our toes. We always ask for push back and they sure gave it. It was exciting to see folks exploring different sides of issues, playing devils advocates, and challenging facilitators. These are the conversations that are sometimes necessary for change. If we all fall into our habitual "Kansas nice" and the heat never gets raised, it can be difficult to make progress. Thank you Pratt participants for your openness and enthusiasm!
