Working While Black: Healing Circle - 2023

Working While Black: Drop-In Healing Circle.

In partnership with DPH, SFHSS is now sponsoring Working While Black Healing Circle.

Respecting Safe Space: this resource is a safe space where employees that identify as Black, African, and African American can get support from people who share similar cultural background to build belonging that enhances their health and well-being. The Healing Circle is inclusive of the diversity of Black, African, and African American staff of all genders, sexual orientations, religions, and nationalities including those that are presenting and non-presenting.

This Healing Circle is a private and non-judgmental place for employees to share chronic and acute experiences of racial trauma. Mindfulness techniques will be practiced and resources provided.

These sessions can be counted on your timesheets. Check with your supervisor to inquire if you can participate on work time.
