RESOURCES: Diversity Education, Training & Networking

We are offering you the following free resources to help facilitate your conversations on diversity. Each of the two sets of handouts (for Educators aand for the Workplace) contains two parts.

Part One will provide several ways to begin the conversation and to create a safe container, as well as communications guides to help the group relate in a healthy and nurturing way when someone is feeling misunderstood or emotionally vulnerable. (When using these handouts for group discussions, classroom study or agency trainings, be prepared for the possibility of intense emotions and conflicts that may arise.)

Part Two offers more helpful exercises, some of which are specific to your particular group as educators or members of the workforce. Our hope is that these exercises will facilitate unlearning racism and other forms of oppression, and inspire more authentic relationships and insightful, compassionate conversations.
