Our Services
REI’s two-day Phase 1 training is designed to develop the capacity of participants to better understand racism in its institutional and structural forms.
Phase 2 helps emerging racial equity leaders identify their struggles and challenges in light of the racial equity analysis outlined in Phase 1.
Phase 3 work is where an institution, organization, or network puts the analysis and tools from Phase 1 and Phase 2 into practice.
A typical Groundwater Presentation is a three-hour introduction to Racial Equity, and we can adjust to accommodate a shorter time slot or to dive deeper if you are able to allocate up to a full day.
Latino Challenges is a two-day workshop for people who live in or work with Latino communities and are interested in ending racial disparities in our institutions and working together for social justice.
