CEDAM’s Transforming Self-Care to Healing and Justice
August 18, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
As professionals who focus on the development of others and organizations, it is vital that we reflect on our own ability to show up in ways that promote innovation, relationship-building, and equity. In this session, participants will explore how stress manifests in their daily lives, examine the root causes of distress and trauma, and investigate how their personal values impact their boundaries and priorities. In order to navigate tough conversations and realities about race, we must cultivate resilience in ourselves and organizations so that we can recognize racism in policies, cultural norms, and individual behaviors and make changes that promote healing. After this critical reflection, participants will explore leadership, communication, and environmental strategies for re-centering health, sustainability, and justice for ourselves and the communities we serve.
Host: Becca Bishopric Patterson, assistant director for the Gender and LGBTQIA Center at Elon University
