Introducing the Labyrinth to Others – Other Resources

In addition to the resources offered by Labyrinth Launchpad, the following organisations provide support for training and implementing labyrinth projects. Note that most of these operate in the English-speaking world, and usually charge a fee for their services.

Labyrinth host training

The principle organisation for Labyrinth Facilitator Training is Veriditas, a US-based non profit organisation, founded in 1995 by Lauren Artress, whose labyrinth ministry, beginning at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco, inspired the growth of the modern popularity of labyrinths.

Veriditas offers introductory, facilitator, and advanced facilitator training, supported by an accreditation program. Its programs are periodically run in North America, Europe, and Australasia, and it additionally hosts other location-based and online events, including retreats and summer schools. A scholarship grant can be applied for to support the cost of facilitator training.

Veriditas also operates VIA (Veriditas International Association of Professionally Trained Labyrinth Facilitators), an organisation of professional labyrinth facilitators, giving access to a library of webinars and other features.
