Sheryl's Community Page

This is the place where I've put odds and ends of things -- mostly related to community and empowerment -- that didn't fit anywhere else. To be honest I don't know yet what's going to happen with this section but I do know I want something interactive.

That's why I've decided to include a weblog --a "blog" page as it's known by those who know.

You'll also find articles on social change and attending the World Conference for Women in Beijing. Eventually there may be links to things I find interesting or fun and who knows what else. Pictures of my cats? I'm open to suggestion.


Sheryl's Blog

This is where I write stuff and, if you want to, you can write stuff back that other people can read and respond to as well. Kind of like a salon or online discussion group.

Articles

Components of an Effective Program of Empowerment for Potential World Changers
Included by popular demand, this is the Integration paper I wrote at the end of my M.A. program at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology.

No Limits for Women in Beijing
In 1995 I attended the 4th World Conference for Women in Beijing, China with a group called "No Limits for Women." This is an article I wrote for a local newsletter.
