A Brown School Professional Development Summit
The Rainbow Resilience Summit is a two-day interactive professional development event dedicated to the wellbeing of the LGBTQ+ community. Two tracks of workshops are offered: one focused on policy and advocacy, and the other on clinical mental health care. This gathering will bring together social workers, mental health practitioners, nonprofit leaders, policymakers, and advocates to strengthen the community’s health and empowerment.
Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in a range of hands-on workshops designed to equip them with the tools and strategies needed to foster resilience, promote equity, and drive social change, all through a lens of equity and intersectionality.
Register now to contribute to a collective effort toward a stronger, more just future for the LGBTQ+ community!
