Black Histories and Futures Month is a time dedicated to envisioning, investing in, and advancing thriving Black communities.
Below, explore resources that deepen this work, including webinars on reimagining Black Futures and community care, a blog on engaging diverse communities, and a workshop focused on diversity and leadership.
WEBINAR RECORDING | Reimagining Black Futures
Yesterday we held Reimagining Black Futures, a free webinar that invites us to reflect on how ancestral wisdom has given us the foresight to understand Black identity as intersectional, emergent, and able to respond to complex realities of today and tomorrow.
BLOG | Ethically Engaging Diverse Groups in Community Work
Discover how to engage diverse communities in ways that are relational, ethical, and grounded in care. Learn why deep listening, accessibility, and accountability are essential to community‑rooted engagement that truly drives equitable change.
FREE WEBINAR | Sustaining Change Starts with Caring for Caretakers
Community caretakers often burn out while driving transformation. Join this free webinar to explore how grassroots initiatives and systemic reforms can centre care, well-being, and rest for those leading change. Learn strategies to join the movement supporting community caretakers.
