Decolonizing Your Helping Practice

About this Workshop

Are you looking to decolonize your helping practice and learn wholistic approaches to healing?

Join us for this unique opportunity, where you’ll learn how to weave Indigenous and Western approaches into your helping practice and apply a decolonized lens to your role.

Through circle methodology, you will engage in critical reflection, experiential learning, and storytelling to deepen your understanding of wholistic approaches to healing. You will gain practical skills for solidarity and allyship, with a focus on co-creating culturally welcoming spaces.

Challenge yourself to examine the presence of colonization in your own practice and deepen your understanding of the ongoing impacts of colonization on the well-being of Indigenous peoples.
