WSCADV Sustaining Wellbeing for BIPOC Advocates in the Gender-Based Violence Movement

October 17 at 12:00 pm  –  1:30 pm

The work to end gender-based violence can take a profound toll on our bodies, minds, and spirits. It’s easy to let our own well-being take a back seat as we push for social change and support survivors. For BIPOC advocates, the intersection of advocacy work with additional layers of systemic oppression can intensify this strain.

Join guest speakers Nan Stoops of the Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Vanessa Timmons of the Oregon Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence for a unique gathering designed exclusively for BIPOC advocates to pause, connect, and nurture themselves.

This interactive session is free and open to advocates who identify as Black, Indigenous, or as a Person of Color. Participate in discussions, connect with peers, and gain insights to sustain your well-being and continue your work with renewed strength.

Don’t miss this chance to recharge, build solidarity, and strengthen our community. Please share this invitation with BIPOC advocates in your network! Together, we are stronger
