Affinity Group for Educators of Color (Virtual)

Affinity Group for Educators of Color

FREE

3:30 PM - 4:30 PM via ZOOM

Facilitator: Jae Henderson, Consultant 

The Center 4All, a division of CESA 6 will host affinity groups for educators of color.  These virtual meetings will provide safe spaces to have authentic conversations in a judgment-free environment allowing individuals to come as they are.  We look forward to you joining this amazing network as we continue to learn, grow, and develop together.   The Affinity group will provide an opportunity for sharing and exploring your life and experiences within safe and supportive spaces defined by membership in a non-white racial or ethnic identity group. Affinity group participants will celebrate identities, share successes and challenges, and engage freely.

Objectives: 

• Facilitating opportunities for affirming, nurturing, and celebrating lived experience;

• Discussing issues related to racial/ ethnic identity development in a safe environment where people who share that racial or ethnic identity can generate community, fellowship, and empowerment; 

• Envisioning and sharing strategies for greater racial and ethnic diversity, equity, and inclusion in schools and communities.

Who Should Attend: 

Educators who identify with a race or ethnicity that is not white.

*A ZOOM link will be sent to you 1 day prior to each session.
