WHAT WE'LL COVER:
Sending the Right Signal
Sending the Right Signal encourages us to discuss race in a way that affirms our humanity, broadens our spiritual and social consciousness, and inspires us to make the world more equitable for all. In this workshop, participants will build an understanding of unconscious racial bias, the historical construction of racism, and how it affects us today.
Healing from Racism
Racism is mentally and emotionally disempowering. We have all received toxic messages about our racial identity, which hinder our ability to truly be ourselves. This workshop is designed to create a nurturing environment that supports the healing and restoration of our authentic selves.
Cultural Integration
The Integration will take you on a deep dive into understanding the inner workings of white organizational culture, “The Great Unexamined”. The purpose of taking the dive is to uncover the truth of integrating cultures in ways we never have before.
