This is an opportunity for individuals who identify as Black\, Indigenous\, and/or People of Color to come together in a safe and supportive environment. Together\, we will cover the following topics: \n\n\n Cultural Competence \n Vicarious Trauma \n Intersectional Identities \n Micro-\, Macro -Aggressions and Discrimination \n Workload Imbalance\n\n\n . just to name a few!\n\nJoin us as we prioritize mental health and well-being within the BIPOC nonprofit community.
