The 6th annual Step Up: Moving Racial Equity Forward Conference will be on April 29th, 2022!

 

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Step Up is a virtual conference designed for participants to gain deeper understanding and new perspectives about racial equity and social justice in society and their workplace. Participants will leave with innovative and USEFUL tools on how to address systemic racism in their respective organizations and institutions that will be applicable across business, government, and non-profit sectors. Adults and youth from all backgrounds and experiences are welcomed and encouraged to attend. All participants will have access to recorded workshops sessions for 30 days after the event.

The conference is intended to offer a variety of workshops for people with diverse interests and different levels of knowledge and experiences. A variety of solution-based workshops cover a variety of topics including how to address institutional racism, implicit bias, and microaggressions. Attendees will also explore decolonization of education, the intersection of race and LGBTQIA people, systems change, and more.

We are excited to host the 6th annual Step Up virtually again! In 2021, over 900 people joined from literally all over the world! Click here to see what last year’s event looked like.
