National Prevention Town Hall | Congreso Nacional de Prevención

Date: 
Wednesday, 14 September 2022

Creating a world free from violence requires us to boldly and unapologetically confront and dismantle white supremacy, anti-Blackness, and other forms of oppression. It means acknowledging the impact of colonialism, slavery, and other historical trauma on our hearts, practices, and structures. It requires us to live into our values - individually, in relationship with others, and in our organizations and larger movement.

This National Prevention Town Hall will uplift innovative prevention approaches in the Pacific Coast region of the United states that are community-driven, rooted in cultural strengths, and focused on relationship building. Together, participants will explore how our work is connected to and impacted by our current social and political reality, and what part each of us plays actualizing collective liberation.

This event offers live captioning and interpretation in English, Spanish and ASL.

Para crear un mundo libre de violencia requiere que confrontemos y desmantelemos con valentía y sin disculpas la supremacía blanca, la lucha contra la negritud y otras formas de opresión. Significa reconocer el impacto del colonialismo, la esclavitud y otros traumas históricos en nuestros corazones, prácticas y estructuras. Requiere que vivamos de acuerdo con nuestros valores, individualmente, en relación con los demás y en nuestras organizaciones y movimientos más grandes.

Este Congreso Nacional de Prevención promoverá enfoques de prevención innovadores en la región de la costa del Pacífico de los Estados Unidos que centran la comunidad, que enfocan las fortalezas culturales y que están enfocados en la construcción de relaciones. Juntos, los participantes explorarán cómo nuestro trabajo está conectado e impactado por nuestra realidad social y política actual, y el papel que cada person juega en la actualización de la liberación colectiva.

Este evento ofrece subtítulos en vivo e interpretación en inglés, español y ASL.
