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 December:
Questioning Wellness & Diet Culture: A Sizeism & Anti-Fat Bias Workshop- Monday, December 2, 2024 @12:00-1:30 p.m.
This workshop will take place on two separate dates/times. You are welcome to attend one or both sessions; however, please note that the same content will be delivered on both dates. Come learn alongside us as we dig into how to identify sizeism, weight stigma, and fatphobia, how to disrupt it effectively, the negative impact it has on us and the people around us, and how to begin to unlearn and question the many ways we were taught to think about health, wellness, and diet culture. This workshop is open to all. Register here.
Prioritizing Mental Health While Navigating Antisemitism- Tuesday, December 3, 2024 @8:30-9:30 p.m.
For the longest time, nobody in the Jewish community wanted to talk about mental health. Our goal is to eliminate the stigma — and quiet the silence — surrounding mental health and the issues that challenge us today. During this webinar, co-hosted by the URJ and the Blue Dove Foundation, you will hear personal stories of struggle and loss directly from those with lived experience which will allow attendees to foster new perspectives, ideas, and hope. This workshop is open to all. Register here.
Belonging: Building an Alliance of Trust as an Act of Allyship- Monday, December 9, 2024 @7:00-8:15 p.m.
Join Jordan Steffy (he/him) and Brian Levenson (he/him), founders of the Alliance for Trust in dialogue with Yolanda Savage-Narva (she/her) as they share their stories of allyship and intersectional identities, as well as the importance of coming together in solidarity during this critical time. This workshop is open to all. Register here.
Questioning Wellness & Diet Culture: A Sizeism & Anti-Fat Bias Workshop- Wednesday, December 11, 2024 @8:00-9:30 p.m.
