In light of physical distancing measures, Involve 2020 was held virtually. Please see below for the list of workshops that were hosted.
Archway Diversity Education hosted a two-part workshop "Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace.” Part 1 focused on increasing your understanding on the topics of equity, diversity, and inclusion; and how these relate to racism and discrimination in the workplace. View the video
Part 2 focused on ways to respond to incidents of racism and discrimination in the workplace; and introduced strategies to create an anti-racist workplace. View the video and handout.
We were also pleased to host Brenda Adams and her workshop, Self-Care in the time of a Global Pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic hit a lot of us really hard and adjusting to the constant changes that are occurring in our work and in our personal lives is challenging. Our emotional and mental buckets are emptying and it can be hard to figure out how to refill them. In this workshop you will learn strategies to create a self-care routine that fits your life now and that you can adapt as things change (as we know they do). Once you have gone through this workshop you’ll have resources and information you can also share with colleagues and staff who might be struggling with self-care.
