Beep Beep Beep calling all our BIPOC folks! Have you gone to trainings or conferences craving more focus on centering our lived experiences? Well look no further, Reclaiming Identity for Collective Liberation may be the answer for you. This conference was intentionally created by Dr. Sandra Leon-Villa, from Las Vegas, Nevada. It was designed with us in mind, our healing, our stories, and our communities. Past workshops included:
One of our clinicians has shared that she has been fortunate to attend this conference for the last three years, and I says it has been nothing short of “life-changing”. She reports feeling seen, not just as a professional, but as a whole person bringing gifts to this field. She has shared that she felt heard, safe, and deeply connected. There’s a unique kind of healing that happens when in a space where your story is not the exception, but the norm. One of the most meaningful experiences during the conference is the opportunity to participate in an indigenous ritual from the host country (oh, did we mention it’s in a different country every year?) which ground us in cultural reverence and collective healing. Our clinician has built connections and relationships with others in the mental health field which has afforded her an opportunity to grow her knowledge and experiences. If you are looking for space where the speakers look like you, the stories resonate with you, and the community uplifts you, we invite you to explore Reclaiming Identity for Collective Liberation. It might just be what you’ve been waiting for.
