The Carpenter's House - Racial Awareness Group Sundays: Jan. 8, 22, 29 and Feb. 125:30 – 7:00 pmThe Carpenter’s House: 5148 Massachusetts Ave., Bethesda Share, explore, and support The challenges of race, diversity, and community are many. They can be confusing and intimidating. They can make us unsure of what we think and feel. Therefore, it is important to nurture awareness of self and others. We need spaces to take a break, take a breath, and explore. Those spaces can help us – and others there with us. This group is a safe space to share what is on your heart, soul, and mind. It is a place to name thoughts, observations, and struggles – without judgment, expectations, or solutions from others. It is also a chance to support others by receiving and helping hold what they need to offer. We will seek to learn from our stories; from sharing them honestly and openly in a confidential setting. Our goal is awareness that helps your journey of racial understanding, and your relationships in the world. * * * * Contact Yonce Shelton (group facilitator), at yonce@carpentershousedc.org or 301.761.4166 with questions or to RSVP (very helpful, but not required). Participants are encouraged to attend all meetings. While this group is sponsored by a faith-based nonprofit, it is not a spiritual group. The space is inclusive and welcoming of all people and perspectives.
