Black people, Black people who identify as LGBTQ+ or gender nonconforming

Description:
This 40-minute beginner friendly, slow flow and restorative yoga class will be a space for those who identify as Black across gender and age to join in community to move and meditate together. While we flow, I will share my experiences as a Black, plus sized woman navigating predominantly white yoga spaces and how that encouraged me to begin sharing this practice with my community. I will also share fun facts about Black people in history who used yoga and movement as resistance, including Rosa Parks and Angela Davis. I will also share information about The Nap Ministry by Tricia Hersey and talk about her book, Rest is Resistance. We will be flowing to R&B, soul, rock and roll, and trap music. After our flow, we will participate in a 10-minute guided meditation around healing/emotional awareness. After our meditation, we will have an opportunity to reflect on this experience and discuss how we can further these relationships with each other and build opportunities for connecting outside of this space.

Description:
Creativity is more than just being good at art. It is the ability to imagine abstract ideas and transform them into reality—a crucial skill in social justice work. In this workshop, participants will create a collage while engaging in a guided discussion about lessons from art that we can apply to social justice practices. No lectures, just communal learning. No pressure, just presence. No concrete learning objectives, just a chance to experience healing, connection, and creative thinking. Be empowered to imagine a world beyond the current systems we live under.

All - Open to Everyone

Description:
During this session, we’ll explore how the tool can be used by community organizations, advocates, case managers, and client facing professionals to support people navigating civil legal issues, particularly those impacted by poverty and systemic barriers. We’ll also discuss strategies for incorporating Legal Tune Up into outreach, legal clinics, and advocacy work to help increase individual agency and reduce the legal obstacles that contribute to economic instability.

With increasing pressure to do more with less, organizations that do Poverty work are stretched thinner than ever. The legal sphere of Poverty work is no exception. Wisconsin is facing an Access to Justice crisis, especially in rural areas. The term “access to justice” describes the ability of any person, regardless of income, to use the legal system to advocate for themselves and their interests. At this workshop, Attendees will learn how to use the online Legal Tune Up and the Wisconsin Law Help’s website, two legal technology tools that are working to address this ever growing need.

 Both of the programs will discuss access to justice issues in civil actions, teach the basics of the tool, and seek critical partnerships with other organizations to guide users to greater access to information.

White Identifying Women

Description:
This session invites participants to step into the messy, necessary work of being in multiracial families, workplaces, and communities where mistakes are inevitable. Together, we will explore how perfectionism—rooted in white supremacy culture—shows up in our bodies, in our stories, and in our interactions, and how it keeps us disconnected, defensive, and can cause real harm. By dismantling the urge to “get it right,” we open the door to deeper relationships, courage, and repair. This is about liberation from perfectionism and the building of real relational skills, with repair spotlighted as both a practice and a skill. Participants will learn frameworks, practical tools, and practice role-playing. These capacities prepare us for deeper intimacy, stronger relationships, and more successful collaborations in solidarity movements, board rooms, teams, and beyond.
