The past few years have seen unprecedented legislative, legal, and structural challenges to LGBTQ rights. These external challenges highlight divisions that exist within the LGBTQ community. This workshop willl foster connection and build community among LGBTQ+ participants using a lens of collective liberation.

Participants will engage in dialogue about intracommunity accountability and challenges. This workshop will be held as a space for LGBTQ individuals to imagine how we make meaning of these present external and internal struggles and the creation of a future that uplifts trans and queer identities.

Building cultural humility & understanding of LGBTQIA+ populations. Build capacity around inclusive language.

This is part 2 of this 2-part series.

About the Summer Session Themes

After learning skills for workplace resilience - skills that help counter burnout, help prevent secondary traumatic stress, and that help strengthen your work within your team and with those to whom you provide service - how to you sustain these skills? This Summer Series is themed each month around one of the letters in CHIME - Connectedness, Hope & optimism, Identity, Meaning, Empowerment.  Using CHIME can help you keep track of your own skills and check in with yourself on how you are doing.

Supported in part by the Philadelphia Department of Public Health

The stress of caring for others can affect our bodies and minds. This free virtual series is here to support our workplaces and community and is open to anyone.
