Master Facilitator

"Harlan is to group facilitation what Picaso was to art. He does naturally what others study years to do." 
Flossie Henderson, Veteran Educator
The combination of experience, training, curiosity  and a genuine desire to help, makes Harlan one of the most sought after facilitators in urban youth development.  Group facilitation is an art form that requires a kind of intellectual tour guide who can take a group from one conceptual station to the next without losing sight of the important sites along the way. 

Harlan is often hired to help guide groups through strategic planning, capacity building, conflict resolution and community building processes.  These experiences range from one day to 12 month experiences.
