Taking healing into our own hands

Community Peace-Building

Even in the darkest times, please know that you are not alone!
Even the tiniest steps add up.

Let's come together to make things better.

Dear Neighbors in Concord, Clayton, Walnut Creek, and surrounding communities,

WELCOME! We are all in this together, and we can make a difference in creating a safe and just community for all. The first step is to reach out to each other. If you need support dealing with race issues, no matter who you are or which "side" you find yourself on, you are welcome here. You are not alone!

Join us for conversation and community building around healing racial inequities

We meet twice a month on Wednesday evenings (see schedule below), alternating between drop-in community conversations and book club meetings.

2nd Wednesday of the Month: Community Conversation 

These are informal drop-in meetings for networking, building community, and discussing racial issues in our community. From time to time, we may focus on specific topics, which will be posted a week ahead of the meeting. The next upcoming meeting is August 12, 2020

4th Wednesday of the Month: Book Club

Want to expand your awareness in a supportive environment with other community members? Join us for book club. We pick one book at a time, and discuss it over two monthly meetings. Our current book is White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo, and the first of two book club meetings is August 26, 2020.
