"Healing from Racial Trauma" Series

People and Workplace Culture and Student Success are sponsoring five Zoom calls, “Healing from Racial Trauma,” between March 26 and April 30.  

 

These calls were originally specific to select groups of attendees to address the Zoombombings on February 4 and February 19 that left many of us reeling emotionally from the hate and racism that was spread.  At that time, we contracted with a group of Black/African heritage therapists, “The Black Clinicians,” to provide support to our SLCC community members. The therapists will continue to provide space for us to be together and express our emotions and provide tools for processing any triggers that may have happened and continue to linger.*
