Workshops

Workshop leader Dana Jean asks What are you willing to risk? Confronting Gender, Race and Prvilege. Let’s get uncomfortable in this practical workshop that asks hard questions to help us identify ways we may center the comfort of middle-class women at the expense of others.

Our second workshop is led by Dee Sanders who says It’s Ours to Fix, Being a Social Justice Warrior. We’ll look at ways we can we make lifestyle changes to create an environment that is more just and equitable.
