The ad hoc Growing Diverse Leadership Committee and the Working Group on Racism invite you to this free Change Group training to realize our vision of overcoming racism and becoming a multicultural religious society. Our lead facilitator is Dr. Amanda Kemp assisted by Dr. Erika Fitz. Both are members of a Lancaster Monthly Meeting. Each training session will be from 10am to 5pm (with an hour lunch break).

Before we can create healthy relationships across the color line, attract and retain racial diversity, or be effective advocates for change in our Meeting we need to increase self-awareness. We will focus on:
• Noticing implicit racial bias and unintended micro-aggressions
• Removing audio and visuals in our home and Meeting that cue negative racial stereotypes
• Adding audio and visuals that promote equity in our community
• Expanding our leadership and positive impact by going towards what we fear
• Creating an action plan that includes regularly reflecting on our impact and intention.
