Color Me Community™ is a dynamic workshop experience that helps people explore identity, confront the forces that divide us, and build a sense of shared humanity.



Rooted in Life Pieces To Masterpieces’ award-winning Human Development System and nearly 30 years of practice with our boys and young men, Color Me Community workshops provide a nurturing, nonjudgmental space where individuals, groups, and organizations can reflect deeply, bridge divides, and transform ideas into action. Whether your goal is to strengthen your organizational culture, reconnect with community, or grow as a leader, each session invites vulnerability, sparks creativity, and helps participants chart their own path forward.


Thousands have participated in Color Me Community—from our youth and families in here Ward 7, to local educators and returning citizens, to international artists, faith leaders, and visiting diplomats from six continents. What unites them all is the experience of seeing themselves and others more clearly—and walking away ready to help create a more just, connected world.

Testimonials

“

CMC has had a profound impact on our students and our community. It has provided a way to not only help a group recognize their individual and shared strengths, but also to actively build a lasting community of belonging and support. The young adults we work with have carried forward what they learned in Color Me Community to every aspect of their interaction. They care for and respect each other while also holding themselves and others accountable, in a truly positive way. I believe Color Me Community is the "secret sauce" to the success of our workforce development program and I would urge other Program Directors and Team Leaders to make CMC training part of their onboarding, orientations, conflict resolution strategies or anything that requires people to really see each other and recognize the ties that connect us.

“Spark Point Fundraising had an engaging and meaningful experience throughout our Color Me Community day.
We learned a lot about each other and shared a lot about ourselves, enabling deeper understanding of our colleagues. Sister Mary, Sister Allie, and Brother Andrew were compassionate and enthusiastic guides on our learning journey. We left the workshop feeling reinvigorated about our work and grateful for the experience. “

On behalf of all our human development global unit staff I want to thank you and
your team for leading us through a remarkable community activity during our HD Week.
You helped us connect, create, contribute, and celebrate within our community. The
process of considering our gifts and gains is a new way of thinking about our work: aside
from the interesting thought process, we also have a cheerful and colorful human chain
and two magnificent paintings to remind us of our time together.
We were inspired by your team of co-facilitators and your work in helping turn
their lives around – the passion you bring to your work is palpable. I am sure our
colleagues will be looking out for your organization during the next Community
Connections campaign.
With best regards,

Sincerely,
Mamta Murthi
