Racial healing is an individual and collective process that supports the dismantling of racism within ourselves and society. When grounded in empathy and oriented towards equity, racial healing has restorative potential and affirms our humanity and inherent value. This experience is a process and tool to facilitate trust and build authentic relationships that bridge divides created by real and perceived differences.
Participants are invited to share personal experiences and heart stories, leaving the experience in a deeper relationship with each other and ourselves. To allow for deep reflection and powerful insights, each circle is limited to 15 participants. Pre-registration through this Google Form is required.
