What experiences from your time at Edgewood Center do you think you will draw the most strength from at Side by Side?
The work I’ve done in organizational change towards becoming a healing organization by building in more trauma informed practices.
Can you tell me a little about what cultural humility, equity, and inclusion mean to you and why those are so important in the context of the work that Side by Side does?
For me, cultural humility, equity, and inclusion mean that I stay curious about people and ask questions; actively consider how my bias or blind spots are interfering with my ability to be compassionate; and by examining who’s involved, who isn’t, and how to create spaces with room for all to belong.
Can you tell me how you think Side by Side is well positioned to respond to the current alarming state of youth mental health in our region?
Side by Side knows what we do well in service of community. We are well positioned to respond to the wellness needs of youth by staying focused on our strengths and connecting with other agencies to broaden our reach and our impact.
