SUMMARY:Norms for Engaging in Courageous Conversations with Cultures Connecting (MEMBERS ONLY)
DESCRIPTION:Join trainers from Cultures Connecting to widen your skill set and develop strategies to dismantle institutional racism. \nOne of the most common questions I get asked when facilitating conversations on race is “What can I do?” There are many things that can and should be done to dismantle institutional racism. Including learning to have effective conversations about racism. If we don’t talk about racism\, we can’t identify institutional racism in our organizations\, and therefore dismantle it. We all have different experiences and perspectives on race depending on our racial identity and where we come from. This often leads to tension and conflict in cross cultural interactions. Typical\, unspoken norms we use to engage in everyday conversations don’t work when talking about race. So\, what does? In this workshop participants learn seven tools to guide them in having effective conversations about race\, racism\, and race relations\, adapted from the work of Glenn Singleton.\nObjectives—Participants will:\n1) Learn tools and strategies for how to engage in cross cultural interactions.\n2) Individually identify what is most difficult for them in race conversations and commit to practicing a new way of engaging.\n3) Deepen their understanding of the need for explicit norms to guide our conversations. \nRegister here for Norms for Engaging in Courageous Conversations.\nThis online training is Tuesday\, November 1st from 1PM-4PM and will meet virtually on zoom. Please direct questions to programs@wawomensfdn.org .

SUMMARY:Advocacy Grant Celebration (OPEN TO ALL)
DESCRIPTION:Come learn about our new Advocacy grant initiative and celebrate our grantees! Hear from members of the Advocacy Grant Committee about our learnings and from grantees about their work. \nWhen refreshing our grants\, our goal was to develop a funding framework that would contribute to lasting change by deepening community resilience\, strengthening community leadership\, supporting community-led advocacy\, and committing community-directed resources. The Advocacy Grant Committee reviewed applications from organizations that engage in advocacy as part of their work and are focused on one of our three priorities for 2022: Community Cultural Preservation\, Mental Health & Housing\, and the School to Prison Pipeline.  This committee focused on advocacy grantmaking\, not taking direct advocacy action. The grant committee is made up of WaWF members and community members. WaWF understands advocacy as work that seeks to advance an idea\, argue a position\, and/or enrich the debate about an issue of public concern. This could include education\, research\, litigation\, campaigning\, grassroots organizing\, or nonpartisan political work. \nThe Advocacy Grant Celebration will take place on Tuesday\, September 13th at 3PM. \nThis virtual celebration is open to all and will be recorded. Email programs@wawomensfdn.org with any questions!  \nClick here to register for this event.

SUMMARY:Nurturing Roots Volunteer Field Trip (MEMBERS +1)
DESCRIPTION:Join the staff and community of Nurturing Roots farm to learn about their produce\, perform some light volunteer work\, and participate in a group activity like Herb Seasoning or Tea making. \nNurturing Roots\, our 2021 Environment grantee\, builds community through farming and heals community through relationships. The heart of their work is a 1/4-acre urban farm in South Beacon Hill\, a richly diverse BIPOC community with limited access to healthy food choices.

Parking information and directions will be sent in a following email. \nThis event is a Members + 1 event\, meaning it is only open to WaWF members and a guest.  Please note\, this volunteer trip is outside.
