VIRTUAL 1:1 YOUTH MENTORING
The mission of the one-to-one youth mentoring program, targeting youth between ages 14 - 17, is to support young people’s personal development and help them become compassionate, active and open members of their communities.

DOING THE WORK
This is a programme for white and other privileged people to learn and reflect together about racism. It is deep learning since the vast majority of us were raised in a culture where racism against people of Afro-Caribbean heritage is endemic and because we all play a part in systemic racism.

More dates coming soon |
|
WHAT ARE THEY THINKING?
We invite you to a talking and hearing session of black and white voices--your voices--through a structured exchange of thoughts/experiences. “What Are They Thinking?” is an opportunity to listen actively to the perspectives of others.
