many instances, the community must speak for the voices of the unheard and overlooked. The fatigue to address everything is REAL and many times triggering and traumatizing for members of our community who are impacted the most.

true healing in our communities. In the midst of our own need to heal as the Seattle Colleges Community, we are also faced with global unrest from events around the nation, and in our local communities. We are deeply pained by the horrific murders of people
who are targeted for simply existing.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

these are appropriate responses to tragedy. While we have been here before, we haven't been in a time without the ability to hold one another, to engage in community healing, to gather to mourn support, and take action together.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

facilitating a journey of healing for ALL. <b>The Office of EDI will be hosting a Healing and Mindfulness Listening Space
</b>where we can all come together to acknowledge events: To acknowledge the pain and grief our students and employees might be experiencing collectively and individually; to acknowledge the importance of just listening mindfully; to (re)Imagine building a
collective community of trust and understanding; to (re)Imagine how we can collectively create a sense of belonging at all of our campuses and locations; to (re)Imagine the ways we can collectively honor and respect all the ways we show up as human, in our
social identities, our health, our wellness, and our mental abilities.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
