Finding Your Voice: Women of Color Group (Virtual)
Mondays @ 6:00pm - 7:30pm on Zoom | Contact Faeiza Javed to register.
Are you a woman of color who is struggling to work in a predominantly White campus or community? As women of color who come from a variety of backgrounds (e.g., African American/Black, Latina/Hispanic, Asian American, Pacific Islander, American Indian, Middle Eastern/Arab American, and others), we have experiences that are unique to our individual backgrounds but also hold many common connections.
This discussion group can provide a safe place to share some of your struggles as well as some of our ways of coping, strengths, and resources.
Taking up Space (Virtual)
Tuesdays @ 5:30pm - 7:00pm on Zoom | Contact Erin Norris to register.
This support group focuses on building support and awareness to overcome and dismantle toxic messages aimed at and against women's bodies. This is not a disordered eating treatment or support group.
Anti-Oppression Art Series
Various Tuesdays (see below) @ 3:00-4:30 pm | Contact Alejandra Almada to register.
Embrace your creativity and self-expression! This Anti-Oppression Art Series delves into three areas of oppression and resistance: Bodies, Belonging, and Joy. Choose to attend one event or immerse yourself in all three. The series will take place on the following Tuesdays in the WRC:
- February 27
- March 12
- April 2
All identities are welcome. Snacks and supplies will be provided. To ensure enough supplies for all attendees, please register here in advance.
