Peer-to-Peer Learning Opportunity!

Untapped Leaders - Wellness and Leadership Series for BIPOC Peer Leaders and Their Allies

Join Jenny Vasquez-Newsum, Ed.D., from Untapped Leaders in a series of  discussions about how to lead authentically and how to harness our untapped capacity to impact our organizations and communities. Connect with other BIPOC-identifying peer leaders and allies, and engage in peer-led coaching for continued support beyond the series. 


We are using the term 'BIPOC' to center the distinct needs and experiences of Black, Indigenous and other people of color, including but not limited to those who identify as Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, South Asian, Pacific Islander, AMENA, and otherwise marginalized positionalities. We are using the term 'ally' as anyone who does not identify as/with and is in support of Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, South Asian, Pacific Islander, AMENA, and otherwise marginalized positionalities. 


Participants in this unique Peer-to-Peer 5-part learning series are asked to attend all sessions as the content continues to build upon each other from week to week.
