RESET Learning Community
Build a more equitable future. Empower your staff.
For employees who identify as BIPOC, working within systems that perpetuate racism and oppression can be a daunting challenge. These barriers often hinder their ability to thrive and make a meaningful impact within their organizations.
That’s why we created RESET, an intensive learning community tailored specifically to these individuals. Our program offers a comprehensive solution, equipping participants with the tools and support necessary to navigate these challenges effectively.
Together, each cohort will embark on a transformative journey of empowerment and skill building. Through engaging workshops, expert guidance, and a nurturing community, participants will emerge as stronger, more resilient equity leaders.
At RESET, we believe in the inherent value of every individual working towards social justice and educational equity. We are driven by the principles of empowerment, inclusion, and dismantling barriers to success.
- Provide staff at social impact organizations with the tools they need to navigate the workplace
- Prepare staff for leadership roles
- Foster a community of empowered staff through a community of peers
