Let's Talk Series, Social Justice, YWCA Olympia

Engage with Anti Oppression Workshops at the YWCA!

Let’s Talk Workshops are designed to introduce and engage you in important social justice issues in our community! We offer in person and online workshops once a month with skilled faciliators, discussing topics such as race, gender, class and more! Workshops self-guided online material, lectures, discussion, caucuses and more!

In Let’s Talk, we craft a safer space for people to ask questions, learn new things and build tools to navigate doing deeper work into these topics. Let’s Talk workshops have been made to be as accessible as possible with easy to understand language, closed captioning, tools, and resources that can be accessed at any time. You’ll also be part of a community of people who also are in a space of wanting to learn and be a better advocate for themselves and the people around them.

It’s ok to not understand something.

Sometimes we just need to sit down and talk about it. 

So Let’s Talk! Sign up for Workshops Below!

We also offer consulting services for groups and organizations looking for coustomized workshops and facilitation! Contact us here to learn more!
