Each year, the Equity Symposium creates space for our community to come together toward the common goal of growing our knowledge and skills in the areas of equity, social justice, and liberation. This year, our theme is Fires Rising: Igniting Resilient Movements. Join us as we rise together to learn from the fires of the past and tend to the flames that ignite and sustain us.
