In this 2 hour session, we will explore what microaggressions are and what it means to be active bystanders who step in with care and support. Participants will learn about the causes of microaggressions, their common themes, and how to respond to them. We’ll work on improving our ability to "walk our talk" and create a more just world. To do this, we’ll discuss strategies for different areas of life, including culture, institutions, relationships, and individual experiences. This session will focus on how we experience and handle microaggressions in our relationships and as individuals. 

Please Note: This training is hybrid and will be held virtually and in person at Oregon Food Bank, 7900 NE 33rd Dr.
