“Christine is a lifelong learner who brings a substantial repertoire of tools to designing and facilitating group processes that address complex and intractable problems. Her specialty is bridging between people who are divided; for example, lovingly guiding white people to look at what’s hard to look at like systematic racism. Even (and especially) when she’s immersed in serious work, she helps others work from a place of joy. While she has tried and true tools, her approach is never formulaic, it’s all particular to the people and circumstances.”

Isoke Femi, Minister and Maven of Transformative Learning at GLIDE

“Christine's expertise on program design and development was vital to building the operational structure of one of our programs at the Social Justice Learning Institute. She helped itemize our budgetary expenses, provided insight on the efficacy of our implementation ideas, and she helped draft the application and promotional material for the program. Christine masterfully guided our team towards materializing and operationalizing what was just a mere vision and aspiration within just a few months of collaboration!”

Gabriel Regalado, Youth Justice Organizer, Social Justice Learning Institute

“Christine is a masterful facilitator, trainer, and human. She listens with her heart and creates magic with her skills. As someone that considers herself an apprentice in facilitation, Christine was able to guide and hold space for me. By the end of the training, I felt called to blossom. I am excited for all the changes- inner and outer- that have already taken place..”

Veronica Vences, Director of Entrepreneurship, Latino Community Foundation

“Christine holds equity and justice at the heart of every process she guides. She brings an analysis of power relations to understand and gently challenge group dynamics where necessary.”

Sarah Reed, Executive Director, Robert and Patricia Switzer Foundation

“Christine came in to pinch hit on a staff retreat for my advancement team, about 40 individuals who were diverse in every way, working across all areas. In that first engagement in 2019, she did an amazing job bringing my team together in thoughtful, strategic, and human ways to build our team strategy and culture. Since that time, Christine has been an invaluable partner to me. She has moved into a role of coaching staff, including managers, to help discuss challenges and unlock their potential. All of the staff who have gone through coaching with her have praised her insight and wisdom!”

Jason Drucker, American Friends Service Committee, Associate Secretary General for Advancement

“Christine is one of the most masterful facilitators I have ever had the opportunity to witness. Not only can she hold space beautifully with diverse groups, but she can take them where they want or need to go whether the objective is discrete or transformational. I have also seen a number of “genius moments" where she is also able to help individuals organize their thoughts and emotions in a way to be fully present and contribute to the group. So when our own team wanted to create a training for rural facilitators I told them that Christine Ageton was an absolute must-have for our faculty."
