Critical Conversations – Self Care and Cultivating Joy and Equity

Inspired by Dr. Jamila Lyiscott’s Black Appetite. White Food, Professors Jennifer Klein and Michelle Lask from the Hunter College School of Education will present on the topic of Self-Care and Cultivating Joy and Equity in difficult times. Professors Klein and Lask will provide a rationale for integrating self-care into equity work and share actionable strategies for self-care practices for participants to feel better equipped to uplift and support the communities they serve. After completing a self-care assessment, participants will engage in breakout sessions to reflect on actionable changes that they can make in their own lives to cultivate joy.
