    'We are in the midst of a pandemic and global awakening around systemic racial injustice. When school resumes, educators will need the space to be able to process what has transpired and hold similar space for their students. The goal of this webinar is to provide primary and secondary educators with tips for implementing trauma-sensitive SEL (Social Emotional Learning) curriculum for students immediately upon their return. We will model the use of online restorative circles from our Reentry through Resilience curriculum as a way to provide space virtually for educators and students. Sat, July 25, 2020'

    'From the streets of Minneapolis, the aboriginal lands of Australia, and the killing fields of Cambodia come the powerful stories of three people who had the courage to step out of the haunting, tragic darkness of the past, risking everything to reach the light of their own compassion. RISKING LIGHT is a thought-provoking documentary that explores resilience, and the painful process of moving from grief to compassion and forgiveness. Through the unforgettable stories of Mary Johnson, who grieves a murdered son; Debra Hocking, a victim of government-sanctioned genocide; and Kilong Ung, who survived the terror of the Khmer Rouge, RISKING LIGHT challenges us to examine our own beliefs about forgiveness and ask “What would the world look like if we could learn to forgive one another?”'
