The Dialogue series features two-hour, weekly gatherings that is limited to 15 participants. The sessions are led by trained facilitators. Participants prepare for the discussions by reading short articles before each session. DORLA offers an "Advanced Series" and well as an "Advanced Beyond Series" for alumni of the "Original Series" programming. These advanced programs are designed to enhance participants’ understanding of race, communication and intelligent action when confronted with racial issues.
