Know Your Stuff: Community Care and Addressing Microaggressions

Project Description
An Empowered Bystander or Upstander is someone who helps create a safer community by utilizing a wide range of behaviors, including standing up and speaking out, when they witness situations that could potentially threaten the health and safety of others. Regardless of the term you prefer, Empowered Bystanders and Upstanders actively promote a culture of safety. This workshop will lean into microaggressions within our community and how we can create a Community of Care by recognizing when they take place and steps we can take to prevent and intervene.
