In this 2-hour workshop, we will:
- Learn more about one another’s identities, experiences, and views to facilitate increased connection and trust which are necessary for successful race equity efforts.

- Work to create a shared understanding of SOME of the foundational concepts and terminology connected to race, racism, and race equity and examine how these show up in our lives and work.
- Begin to explore how to move toward race equity across varying levels and will start to identify pathways to action within your organization.
Participation is free for GRCC members. A limited number of spots are available, so we encourage you register as soon as possible. Attendees will be asked to complete a brief Racial Equity Assessment Survey to help inform Morten Group as they tailor their workshop to our small business community.
