Racial Healing Circles

A Racial Healing Circle is an opportunity for individuals from diverse backgrounds to share their stories in a safe, brave, and responsible space.  The Racial Healing Circles are facilitated by trained RHC Practitioners.  Each circle is designed for specialized audiences and particular goals based on the group, organization, and/or institution.

Green Zone – Military Cultural Competency Education Session

In studies conducted at colleges and universities nationwide, military-affiliated students reported feeling that other members of their campus community did not appreciate, understand, or respect their service. The training provides the Rutgers community and our partners with a general overview of military culture, structure and norms that govern those who serve and impact their transition from the military to college and the workplace.  Professionals and students will walk away with the knowledge to more easily communicate with our military-affiliated students.
