Our Work

We are committed to offering people of all backgrounds opportunities for learning skills and tools to dismantle systems of oppression, deepening engagement with social justice issues in a meaningful community.

Transformative social justice means moving along a continuum from awareness to deeper understanding of the issues and sustained informed action. It means recognizing our responsibility for action and how we are implicated in systems of power. It means then working individually and collective towards solutions. 

The work of dismantling systems of oppression is not comfortable. This is especially true when those engaging with it hold positions of societal privilege and power (regardless of other social locations they may hold that are less privileged). As such, these workshops will likely bring up feelings of discomfort in participants. This is good. In order to deeply investigate the ways that institutional and systematic forms of oppression manifest as a social order, and in order to begin to dismantle that social order, we must get uncomfortable to learn.

In our workshops and consultations, we offer tools to guide people through a continuum of transformative learning. Before we can learn how to analyze a social injustice, we have to start with engaging ourselves--through bodily experience and informative content. That can lead to understanding, which supports analysis of problems. Finally, social justice education helps us to develop our own understanding of how things change and where we can intervene and act.
