Community Based Racial Equity 101

This workshop is an opportunity to develop a foundational understanding of the systems that uphold racial inequity and the impact it has at the interpersonal, institutional, and structural levels.

Facilitated by our Director of Racial and Gender Equity,  sessions utilize learning strategies intended to engage everyone, including group discussion, reading materials, awareness exercises, interactive activities and more—all in a safe, supportive environment where everyone can share their thoughts openly.
