Trainings and Workshops
Empower your team through workshops designed to cultivate cultural humility and dismantle oppressive systems. Together, we create an inclusive environment that celebrates diversity, fostering growth and engagement.
An integrative, heart-centered approach to learn and practice strategies that lead to deep shifts in your organization’s dynamics and to stronger, healthier partnerships among your team and those you serve.
Building Inclusive Partnerships
We are built to connect with others— yet, that doesn’t mean that we all have enough practice with safe and healthy connections! Navigating relationships is vital across all sectors, especially for organizations serving the global majority, Latinx communities, and undocumented immigrants. If your academic institution, non-profit, or organization is facing challenges such as increased tension or a desire for stronger collaboration within these communities, you're in the right place. Together, we can equip your team with the tools to diminish conflict and foster inclusive, empowering relationships, enhancing support and engagement for the diverse populations you serve.
