WORKSHOP: Strength in Community: Leveraging our Strengths in the Fight Against Rising Hate Workshop [paid]
May 30, 2024, from 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM CDT
Going beyond the idea of “resilience”, it’s time to recognize and explore the strengths that come from our intersectional 2SLGBTQIA+ identities and lived experiences – and how we can apply those to our work in employee resource groups and inclusion councils in this climate of rising hate.
Over the past year, there has been a rise in anti-2SLGBTQIA+ protests, attacks, and political movements. Within this context, our employee resource groups and inclusion councils are facing immense pressure in our work, increasing calls for support from the community we serve, and the immense weight that comes with working on issues related to our personal identities. And yet, we still do this work – as our 2SLGBTQIA+ elders have done for decades before us.
In this workshop, we will take stock of the strengths we’ve built through community-making and self-discovery, and strategize to apply those internally to care for ourselves while doing this work and externally to mobilize against rising hate.
Prices:
* The workshop includes a post-event VIQ reception from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM CDT, where you’ll have the chance to network with fellow guests.
