Our praxis methods and pedagogy are available to those that agree to the following terms of Unity, one of our Nourishment Cycle pillars.
- ACE is a Non-Profit Organization that fosters Multicultural Multidisciplinary development and growth. This means that we are consistently engaging with and welcoming people from all racial and cultural backgrounds. In this space and through our praxis, we must consistently internalize and practice what it means to be allies and in alliance with people with differing struggles and issues. We encourage open and free dialogue; Please be mindful that in a growth space we are constantly applying and stretching our understanding of complex Social, Cultural, Class, and Gender dynamics.
