  • Comprehensive, coordinated, and continual DEI professional development with tailored, community-specific curricula. Foundational equity training and workshops that meet specific organizational needs.

  • Support for proactive recruiting strategies, inclusive hiring practices, transparent promotional pathways, formalized mentorship, and cultural change that promotes employee retention and DEI.

  • Holistic offerings (e.g., meditation, yoga, qigong, and other somatic programming) to heal from the visceral impact and legacy of oppression, racism, and other intergenerational trauma and enhance participants’ resiliency, wellbeing, and capacity to handle discomfort.

  • Values articulation, goal setting, agile strategic planning, equity frameworks, and organizational roadmaps that foster diversity, equity, and inclusion.
