Elohee's Registration and Cancellation Policy

Many women of color experience stressors compounded by gender and race, and other aspects of their identities, on a daily basis. In the workplace, these stressors can heighten as colleagues and supervisors unfairly perceive women of color as threatening, angry, incompetent, hostile, and worse. Being exposed to continual racial trauma and stress can have a profoundly negative impact on our mental, emotional, and physical health. Join us to share experiences with others, prioritize rest and restoration, and to begin to heal the impact of workplace trauma so we can live more fully and freely.

Women+ of Color refers to women who are Black, Asian, Latinx, Native or indigenous, and/or multiracial. Cisgender and trans women, and nonbinary people, are welcome to attend.
