Main Street\, Arlington\, TX \nREGISTER HERE!\nParticipants will view an award-winning film\, Traces of the Trade\, a story from the Deep North; explore the social and cultural advantages of being white and the corollary disadvantages facing Black people; and learn ways to answer the question\, “Now what?” The goal is to take a courageous clear-eyed look at our shared history\, the lessons we can learn from it\, and the ways we can engage with one another locally as we strive to become a healthier community\, physically\, spiritually\, and economically. Co-moderators are  Estrus Tucker and Katie Sherrod. \nThe event will take place in the former Arlington Museum of Art building\, 201 W. Main Street\, which has been purchased by the Arlington Center for Community Engagement (ACCE). The ACCE sponsors Wellspring on Main. Wellspring on Main is a place where diverse people engage with one another in ways that foster the physical\, emotional\, and spiritual health of our community by celebrating the dignity of every human being. Gathering at the Wellspring programs facilitate broad community engagement to create a more equitable\, healthy Arlington for tomorrow. This event is supported by the Episcopal Health Foundation. \nChildcare is available for children up through age 5 at no charge.\n DEADLINE: February 16th\nREGISTER HERE!\nTraces of the Trade tells the story of the largest slave-trading family in U.S. history\, the DeWolfs of Rhode Island\, the forefathers of Producer/Director Katrina Browne. The film follows Browne and nine fellow family members on a remarkable journey\, which brings them face-to-face with the history and legacy of their New England family’s involvement in the slave trade in the 18th and early 19th centuries against the backdrop of Northern business\, communities\, and residents who condoned and benefited from slave trading. \nImmediately following the film\, DeWolf descendant Dain Perry and his wife Constance Perry will lead a conversation in which participants process what they have just seen. After lunch\, the Perrys will facilitate a workshop on “Unpacking Your Invisible Knapsack\,” a phrase from the work of Peggy  McIntosh. McIntosh points out that white people are taught about racism as something that puts others at a disadvantage but rarely are taught to see one of its corollary aspects\, that white people are at an advantage. Participants will work in small groups\, aided by trained facilitators. A reception will follow\, for people to unwind\, socialize\, and continue to process the work they have done together. \nThe Traces of the Trade gathering is the first in a series of three. In early summer there will be a program featuring local organizations working to overcome the legacy of enslavement and the resulting racism. Representatives will talk about ways to continue anti-racism work on the local level. In the fall the thorny topic of reparations will be explored – what are they\, who owes them\, and how do we make them? These programs have been developed in consultation with Estrus Tucker\, president & CEO and co-founder of DEI Consultants\, Fort Worth\, and a longtime national leader in racial justice and reconciliation efforts\, sponsored in partnership with The Episcopal Health Foundation. \nTraces of the Trade Schedule\nFriday\, February 23\, 2024 \n8:00 am – Participants gather.

We can maybe begin to understand the challenges we all face and agree that we have work to do. But it’s through these conversations that we develop knowledge\, that we begin to build trust and begin to build community so that together we can begin to break down the walls of racism\,” Constance Perry\, facilitator. \nFor more information and to arrange interviews\, contact: \n\nKatie Sherrod – (817) 909-0070\, ksherrod@epicenter.org or\nKevin Johnson – (252) 940-9308\, info@wellspringonmain.org\n\nREGISTER HERE!

The Learning Network is the next step for Episcopal congregations looking for imaginative ways to connect\, deepen strategies for promoting mental health and well-being\, and gain experience using virtual meeting platforms to invite meaningful conversation. \nThe sessions will have two primary goals:\n1) Increasing participants’ knowledge related to mental health and well-being\, particularly through the lens of social justice; and 2) Building connections across congregations in Texas with similar interests in promoting congregational and community well-being. \nSession 6 | December 5\, 2023\nREGISTER HERE! \nBuilding Places of Belonging for the LGBTQIA Communities\nTuesday\, December 5\, 2023 | 12 PM to 1:30 PM\nFacilitated by: Mx. Shane Whalley\nPronouns: ze/hir/hirs\n\n\nWorkshop Overview:\nPeople who are LGBTQIA can face mental health challenges because they are navigating a culture that is not always kind to them. They are often looking for supportive people and organizations where they are loved for who they are. Places where they can bring their full selves and feel a strong sense of belonging. In this workshop\, we will talk about why this is an important\, we will go over the differences between sexual orientation\, gender identity and gender expression and we will discuss ways to best support people who are LGBTQIA. You will leave with information\, skills\, ways to take action\, and resources.\n\nObjectives:\nBy the end of the workshop participants will be able to:\n• Describe the difference between sexual orientation\, birth assigned sex\, gender identity and gender expression\n• Analyze the barriers that people who are LGBTQIA face\n• Navigate vocabulary and pronouns\n• Explore local and national resources.\n\nA Notes from the Facilitator…\nAs a deeply relational and playful genderqueer facilitative educator\, I have been facilitating workshops and conversations on issues faced by the LGBTQIA communities\, cultural humility and responsiveness\, and social justice frameworks for over 20 years. My knowledge comes from my lived experience as a now elder within the genderqueer and queer communities. My lifelong journey as a learner brought me to the Steve Hicks School of Social Work at The University of Texas at Austin where I completed my Master’s in 2003 and continued as an adjunct faculty member to the present day.

In the Community: Ministry with and to Multicultural Communities (En español)\n\nCome and explore community ministry that recognizes the diversity in communities.

In Understanding Privilege and Unpacking It (please note this session will be offered twice\, in the morning and in the afternoon)\n\n The term white privilege is a very challenging one of people who are white. This workshop will explore the definition of “white privilege”: what it is and what it isn’t\, and its impact on the daily lives of people of color and people who are white.\nSpeakers:\n\nDain and Constance Perry\, Traces of the Trade\n\n\n\n\n\nAFTERNOON SESSIONS | 1:00 PM – 2:30 PM \n\nWorkshop #3 – Rooted. In Gathering: The Wellspring is a Vision for Arlington’s Future and a Church Centered on Neighbors\n\nAll Souls in Arlington asked themselves the question\, “Why are we using a 1960’s model of church in 2023? Square pegs\, round holes…” Not because they were particularly ingenious\, but because they were backed into a corner. The result is a fundamentally different way of being the church\, in an authentic\, faithful manner that is bringing health to the community and themselves. This workshop will introduce you to our community engagement discernment process\, invite you to reimagine the role of the church in the community\, and leave you with possibilities.\nSpeakers include:\n\nGloria Bender\, Arlington Center for Community Engagement (ACCE)\nThe Rev.

The Role of Lay People in Public Mental Health DESCRIPTION:EHF Mental Health Learning Network\nHosted by the EHF Congregational Engagement Team and mental health partners Lynda Frost and Anna Jackson \n \nREGISTER HERE! \nThe Episcopal Health Foundation invites you to take part in a Learning Community composed of a series of 90-minute sessions aimed at exploring how we can create connection and promote the mental health and well-being of people in our communities and congregations. \n What’s Community Got to Do with It? The Role of Lay People in Public Mental Health \n Date: Thursday\, October 21\, 2021\n Time: 11:30AM – 1:00PM CDT \nIn our lives\, our mental health ebbs and flows — sometimes our mental wellbeing is steady and sometimes we struggle. Many of our public behavioral health services in Texas are designed to support people experiencing a mental health crisis and lack capacity to address our ongoing mental health needs when we are doing well — or when we aren’t at our best but aren’t experiencing a full-fledged crisis. Access to care along this continuum of need is a key social justice issue across the state. \nThis session will focus on what the public mental health service system in Texas does\, what it does not do\, and what roles communities and congregations are playing across the state. We’ll share examples of effective community engagement to promote mental health — from education and advocacy to wellness support and social connection — and explore what participants might want to pursue. We’ll explore these examples with an eye to social justice concerns and identify ways to move beyond toxic charity to true partnership. \nREGISTER HERE! \nPlease contact Eric Moen at emoen@episcopalhealth.org if you have questions or concerns \nThe Episcopal Health Foundation Congregational Engagement Team works with the Episcopal congregations in the Episcopal Diocese of Texas to deepen their outreach ministries engaging in building healthy communities.
