Cultivating Beloved Community

The 2023 cohort learning experience will embolden CBOs to reimagine and nourish the activism needed for systemic change. This 10-month journey in self and organizational awareness work will be rooted in self-compassion tied to action and collective liberation. In addition to the grant award, CBOs will engage their board and staff to attend required monthly workshops. Dr. Amber Sessoms, Founder of Natural Inclination LLC, will facilitate and guide the power moves to create a framework for cultivating a beloved community. The timeline includes a guided internal equity audit to identify areas of need and/or growth, office hours, plus much more!

Grants of $25,000

“Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be. This is the interrelated structure of reality. Our goal is to create a beloved community, and this will require a qualitative change in our souls as well as a quantitative change in our lives.” –Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
