RECN MEETUPS
RECN is hosting monthly RECN Meetups to support our BIPoC members and also increase our work in White Ally & Accomplice trainings to push forward now. We can't stop. We must keep pushing forward while taking care of our beloved communities of color. We come together for next steps of action to move us forward in anti-racism work.

Currently due to COVID19, we are hosting virtual meetups via Zoom. A link will be provided for your to register.
LISTENING SESSIONS
RECN Core Team has engaged students and staff in listening sessions at several schools in the Rainier UniServ Council area. Feedback and follow up on accountability with administrators to remove equity barriers is always part of our goal as we provide our Black Indigenous students and educators of color a safe space to speak their truth.
OTHER WEA TRAININGS OFFERED
Many of our RECN Core Team members are also WEA trainers. Â We offer courses in Cultural Competency and Implicit Bias as well as Certification trainings and are always expanding our work towards anti-racism in our unions and our public schools.
MENTOR PROGRAM
