Florence Crittenton Services of Colorado (FloCrit) was inspired by W.K. Kellogg’s emails about the National Day of Healing, so we have incorporated the idea into our all day staff meeting where we will discuss Unconscious Bias – Moving from Awareness to Action organization wide. In addition, staff will bring a dish that represents their culture to share at our potluck and also share stories about their own experiences. FloCrit educates, prepares and empowers teen mothers and their children by providing two-generation wraparound services for teen families, which includes an Early Childhood Education Center. Because of our commitment to teen parents and children, scheduling can be challenging for staff and we have to work around their schedules.

Conference and retreat for companies and organizations to reflect on ways they support black financial empowerment, especially for womxn, mothers and caretakers.

VC Day – OKC is an open event for VCs, LPs, and Founders interested in networking within a casual setting. The goal is to create a low-pressure environment for all participants while enabling access to the greater venture capital ecosystem.

The Anti-Racist ERG at Social Current meets on a monthly basis to create space for authentic and vulnerable conversations that encourage reflection and growth on an individual level. We aim to share resources and support individuals to become better allies/advocates for racial equity in ourselves and our communities. We prioritize learning about white-dominant culture, re-learning history and developing our racial identities and making them known to our communities. This is a brave space for conversations, and we want to hear from one another.

In her work as a behavioral scientist, a common factor Dr. Carey Yazeed has discovered is there are few opportunities for Black women to safely discuss their negative experiences in the work place. If and/or when a Black woman does decide to speak up regarding the discrimination, micro aggressions, racism, and harassment she has/is experiencing, she will probably encounter negative consequences such as being labeled angry, difficult to work with, aggressive, or bitter, or she will find herself and her work under a microscope with management looking for a reason to terminate her. Hardly are her grievances taken seriously.

Unlike her white counterparts, Black professional women have the added layers of cultural norms, ongoing societal trauma, and past generational trauma, which they are often navigating unconsciously.

This year Dr. Yazeed is taking additional steps to help Black women to heal, starting with a free seminar on the National Day of Racial Healing, to discuss healing from work trauma. On January 16th at 7pm EST, this seminar will serve as a safe space for Black women to gather and discuss the trauma they have endured in the work place, and learn about solutions to help them as they navigate their healing journey.

Registration is required.

This intimate event will comprise facilitated discussion exploring the topic of racial healing broadly, but also in the contexts of holistic wellness, economic enfranchisement, and the power of narrative.
