Huddles Season 4: Applications Now Open!
A Huddle is a group chat where the same participants meet up regularly to chat about common issues/interests in order to learn more about and deeply explore them. Our Huddles take place inside the 7 Cups group chat system and aim to provide groups of users continuous support and social connection.
We are excited to launch Season 4 of Huddles with several topic based Huddles to sign up for. As the number of participants per Huddle are limited, we encourage you to apply to only 1 Huddle at a time.
The expected launch dates of these Huddles is within 2 weeks of this announcement. Please check your availability before applying.
Structure: What Will a Huddle Consist Of?
Each Huddle will aim to have 7+ members. Your Huddle peers have a shared interest in the same topic, with varied experiences. The group will be open 24/7 and only badged members will have access. Thus, it is an opportunity for a shared, closer connection. Multiple huddle groups will be created to accommodate groups of 7+ users. Each group will also allow up to 3 listeners to join in order to help everyone explore the topic. As Huddles are all about exploration and support, listeners may also share their personal reflections and experiences while supporting others.
Your Huddle experience will involve:
Once accepted, you will be asked to introduce yourself and some of your goals for joining the Huddle. Introducing yourself as well as participating during the first Huddle week at least once is compulsory to confirm your spot - these 2 actions will help you build the foundation of your longer-lasting journey!
The huddle group chat will feature 2-3 prompts per week surrounding different themes and topics during the guided journey. Once the guided Huddle journey is over, you will be able to stay in touch with the new connections if the group votes to keep the chat open.
The only expectations of you (other than participating every week!) is that you are willing to share some of your story, are open to hearing other people’s stories, and treat each of your peers with respect.
Some recommendations to ensure a beneficial experience include:
Try to participate in the group chat at least once a week. While you do not have to answer each prompt, you can share about your daily experiences or other concerns.
Read other responses and reply to other participants: helping one another explore our reflections helps us all benefit from the interaction.
Apart from the above guidelines, all users are expected to follow the general chatroom guidelines and the community guidelines.
For any further questions or feedback, you can PM @SoulfullyAButterfly or send an email to ayesha@7cups.com
