To highlight the importance of inclusion, belonging and elevating the dignity of those often marginalized, the immigrant and refugee experience in the US is explored. Participants see the impacts of exclusion, the harm of assimilation, and what happens when the perspectives and stories of others are not recognized, valued, or considered.
OUR APPROACH
REFLECT: When it comes to the topic of race it’s important for diverse voices to be heard, AND we see value in starting from a place of pause. Our workshops provide the space to sit with thoughts and emotions. Reflecting is an essential part of the process of growing in greater understanding and healing.
CONNECT: We believe that relationships are foundational to learning and growing in greater awareness. Through sharing stories about our lived experiences, we get beneath the surface and into deeper and more meaningful relationships and conversations.
DIRECT: Conversations are not a substitute for meaningful action. We guide toward action by providing space to consider realistic and tangible steps to make an impact at the micro, mezzo or macro level.
