EVENT POLICY.

​1. Respectful Dialogue

• All participants are expected to engage respectfully.

• Disruptive, discriminatory, or disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated.

• Everyone has the right to be heard; no one voice should dominate the conversation.​
   

2. Inclusivity

• Events are open and welcoming to all community members.

• Bilingual participation is encouraged; translation or interpretation support will be provided when possible.

• Cultural traditions, identities, and lived experiences should be honored and respected.
   

3. Accessibility

• Venues will be selected with accessibility in mind (parking, ramps, restrooms, seating).

• Materials will be provided in accessible formats (large print, bilingual handouts, etc.) whenever possible.

• Accommodations requests should be made in advance so CTA can meet participant needs.
   

4. Confidentiality & Safety

• Participants are encouraged to share personal stories, but only to the extent they feel comfortable.

• Respect privacy: do not share another person’s story outside the event without their permission.

• Harassment, intimidation, or unsafe behavior is grounds for removal from the event.
   

5. Nonpartisanship

• While politics and civic engagement are discussed, CTA events are nonpartisan.

• Candidates, campaigns, or partisan materials may not be promoted or distributed during events.
   

6. Community Action

• Conversations should aim to move toward constructive ideas and shared solutions.

• Notes and key themes may be collected by CTA to inform future advocacy, but participants will always be credited collectively, not individually, unless they give permission.
