The openness, shared experiences, and honest conversations reminded us that caring for nafsu (self) is not a luxury—it is a necessity, especially for those who serve the community every day.

Thank you to all the staff for your active participation, thoughtful reflections, and willingness to pause, learn, and grow together. Strong individuals create strong teams, and strong teams build healthy communities.
