Oct. 29, 2024: Healing Through the Intersections: Understanding the Barriers and Improving Support for Racialized Survivors
Healing Through the Intersections (HTTI) is an annual workshop series held in October that’s all about honouring and creating space for intersectional experiences of sexual violence and sexual harassment. In 2024, we are excited to host an in-person professional development opportunity for any and all UofT staff as a part of HTTI.
Lunch will be provided and registration is required. Limited space is available, so register as soon as you’re able! Location will be on the UTSG campus, but exact building/room will be announced to registrants via email closer to the event date.
Oct. 29, 2024: Understanding the Barriers and Improving Support for Racialized Survivors
with Suzanne Charles Watson and Janelle Noel
The presentation will be based on a historical overview of the experience of Black identified individuals in systems that have made it difficult to ask or obtain support for various reasons and experiences, especially as it concerns academic settings. This presentation will use a trauma-informed lens to build capacity and service awareness among Post-Secondary Institution staff, and will address how to support racialized students when they come forward with disclosures of sexual violence.
