The URJ is offering a robust schedule of workshops centering around Racial Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion (REDI). They range from one hour to multi-part series and are open to all to sign up for as many as you would like. All workshops are free.
Below are the offerings for August:
Creating Cultures of Disability Inclusion Workshop- Tuesday, August 20, 2024 @1:00 p.m.
Join Emily Ladau (she/her), disability rights activist and author of Demystifying Disability: What to Know, What to Say, and How to Be an Ally, for real talk on how to be a thoughtful, informed ally to disabled people within your communities and congregations. We’ll cover actionable steps for what to say and do (and what not to do), and how you can support a shift toward a culture of accessibility and inclusion. This workshop is open to all. Register here.
So You Think You Know How to Greet Workshop- Wednesday, August 21, 2024 @8:00 p.m.
As antisemitism surges, it’s more important than ever that we affirm Jews from all backgrounds. Effective greeters can create a culture of inclusivity and belonging for everyone who enters our doors, whether they’re members, prospective members, or visitors. This workshop is open to all. Register here.
High Holidays Through a REDI Lens Workshop- Thursday, August 29, 2024 @1:00 p.m.
The High Holidays are a time when more people than ever are in our buildings and in our Zoom rooms. Come learn how to ensure your High Holiday planning includes affirming community members of all backgrounds and ensuring that all of us are able to experience a community of belonging. This workshop is open to all. We highly encourage congregational leadership, program professionals, and membership/engagement professionals to attend. Register here.
