YWCA Spring 2022 Racial Justice Workshop

Join Tracy Littlejohn and Heather Quackenboss, members of the YWCA’s local facilitator team, for an in depth, interpersonal, and interactive learning experience to explore racial identity, the history and systemic nature of racism, intergenerational trauma, and the dynamics of power & privilege. Heather and Tracy will guide community members through these topics over the course of three 6-hour consecutive Saturdays, beginning April 23rd.

This weekend format will be an in-person event and includes weekly homework assignments. Participants will be paired together as “study-buddies” and asked to meet up at least one time per week, between sessions, to discuss a topic or do an activity from class.
