The Berkeley International Office (BIO), the Center for Teaching and Learning, and Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) are collaborating to host a series of workshops designed to bring students, faculty, and staff together in community and conversation. Each session will spotlight a new aspect of mental health responses to tense interactions and relationships, including cultural humility, interfaith dialogue, and navigating contentious moments with care. This series aims to cultivate a more inclusive and supportive climate for faculty, staff, and students, with grant funding to address bias and bigotry on campus from UCOP.
We hope to see you at one or more sessions. Please see the program description and event details below for our upcoming September workshops. We have both student-facing and faculty/staff-facing workshops each month. We are partnering with I-House for our student-facing events. Please visit our Workshop Series website for more information and the registration links.
