✔️ At least 75% of active chapter members must participate in some portion of the event.
✔️ This event may not be the completion of another Focus on Five stripe.
✔️ ️ The event must include an opportunity for each member to share their personal reflections—either in writing, in pairs/small groups, or as a full chapter.
✔️ Submit documentation of your event: https://forms.gle/bkUVCBz5uhzRyjDo8
