IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

  

  

 

With nearly 20,000 viewers tuning in to our Refuel + Recharge Mental Wellness virtual event series, we are thrilled to announce the second season of Refuel + Recharge: Race + Reconciliation.

As we continue to listen, learn and engage in conversations around racism and injustice, we want this season of Refuel + Recharge to give you the opportunity to listen, learn and engage, too. The work of racial justice and equity begins with each of us individually, learning from each other and engaging in thoughtful discussions within our communities, and then turning our conversations into actions that drive meaningful change.

Starting July 30, join us every other Thursday to hear from a lineup of notable speakers for thoughtful discussions on racial justice, equity and reconciliation.
