"Reflective Resilience for Anti-Oppressive Supervisory Relationships," a NC Center for Nonprofits webinar, June 14th, 10 am to Noon, $15-$25. Power dynamics are unavoidable within supervisory relationships, and most of our nonprofit organizations have a long way to go to undo the inherent inequality and racism at their core. Nonprofit employees are calling for brave spaces in which uncomfortable realities and contradictions are front and center in how we speak about trauma dynamics at work. In this workshop, the NC Center invites experienced, new, and future nonprofit supervisors to reflect on the participants' experiences and ways to activate one's sphere of influence for hope and healing in our organizations. There will be practice opportunities! More details and registration is online.

"Latinx Challenges," a Racial Equity Institute virtual workshop, July 13 and 14th, 9 am to 5 pm, $295 Latinx Challenges, hosted by Neighbors for Better Neighborhoods, is a two-day workshop for people who live in or work with Latino communities and are interested in ending racial disparities in our institutions and working together for social justice. Participants engage in a critical analysis of how racism dis-empowers Latinos, hindering both individual well-being and community development. We examine how Latinos have been racialized in the US, as well as the cultural backdrop of race and racism in Latin America that shapes their layered identity today. At the same time, we explore how particular cultures, identities and histories of struggle are vital sources of strength for individuals and families of Latin American origin in the United States. Further, we directly address how racism is used as a wedge between Latinos and African Americans and undermines the anti-racism movement.

To complete the training, you must be present for both days of the training from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. A break will be offered for Lunch. Register today to participate in this exciting workshop!

State of NC Launches New Grants Portal! Last month, through a partnership between the NC Office of Strategic Partnerships and the NC Department of Information Technology, the state of North Carolina added a new Grants Page, which provides a "one-stop-shop" for nonprofits to access links to various grant programs across state agencies. Better yet--the page is keyword searchable and can also be downloaded into a spreadsheet. This will definitely make it easier for smaller and grassroots nonprofits to identify possible sources of state funds without wasting an undue amount of staff time. The state is also continuing to update the page in real-time as it learns about new opportunities!
