Racial affinity groups, sometimes called racial caucuses, provide separate and necessary spaces for people who share a racial identity to gather, share experiences and explore how racism may manifest in the spaces they occupy. Affinity Groups are co-hosted by Kindred and are an essential part of SWS's racial equity efforts.
This affinity space will create a supportive environment for caregivers who are a part of racially and/or ethnically marginalized groups. We aim to give this diverse community a place to learn, explore, and understand both our connective experiences and our differences.
The first People of Color Affinity Group for this year will meeting on Thursday, October 26 at 4:45PM in the SWS Library. We welcome all who identify as ‘people of color’. This can include but not exclusively: native born, refugees, multiracial/mixed race, or of immigrant status. If you fit these criteria and are interested in participating, please add your name and information here.
