The best part about it was the way that everyone brought their stories to the table. #gamerecognizegame juan246 https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1011490258 2020-12-11 21:38:48 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1011490258 I facilitated CBT with Juan and Guilu!

]]> 2020-12-15 11:30:36 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1019535135 I love the care and thoughtfulness our team brought to our conversion to virtual programming - I think it's pretty safe to say that the question we grappled with in March and April of "how do we translate ELP's special sauce to the virtual space?" has been well answered. You ALL ROCK! errol1 https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1019537070 2020-12-15 11:31:47 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1019537070 I'm so excited how everyone on the team has stepped into the opportunities this year presented ELP, from core programming, to creating virtual retreats for RAY Fellows, to the design and execution of our first RAY Supervisors training and expanding our thinking about the "what's possible" for DDCSP alumni. errol1 https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1019540368 2020-12-15 11:33:37 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1019540368 I love that the most common comments I read and hear about our work and our team is "I don't know how you all do it, but it's even better than I expected." errol1 https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1019543566 2020-12-15 11:35:33 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1019543566 Though we could have been paralyzed by Ravi cycling off our facilitation team, our staff rallied and has used his work as a base from which can continue to grow and iterate on. errol1 https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1019545852 2020-12-15 11:36:50 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1019545852 Integrating situation preparation with RAY Fellow Supervisors https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020329498 Including supporting a RAY Fellow through a microagression by a co-worker, dealing with the loss of a loved one due to police/state violence, and dealing with the violence of our immigration system on their family. ]]> 2020-12-15 15:20:33 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020329498 Shifting RAY Programming to be more trauma-informed https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020349582 in a framework of feeling safe, seen, and heard]]> 2020-12-15 15:24:32 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020349582 An interest in further developing RAY hosting partners "readiness" to host and support RAY Fellows https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020364331 with a focus on really pushing cultural shifts and removing the burden from the RAY Fellow.]]> 2020-12-15 15:27:31 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020364331 Holding space for our RAY Community https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020373539 Hosting a few different all community calls and co-creating this slide together during orientation collectively answering the question "How can we acknowledge the pain of racial trauma and learn to carry it individually & together?"]]> 2020-12-15 15:29:21 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020373539 Our August retreat and continued interest in answering the questions/responsibilities we laid out to our wider ELP/DDCSP/RAY Community in June https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020389929 Turning towards new avenues like policy, deeper curriculum design, and organizational structure.]]> 2020-12-15 15:32:37 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1020389929 Evolving DEI Curriculum https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1021931309 It's been remarkable to experience in real time the shifts ELP has been making in its Core Programs Retreat 1 curriculum.  From the recognition that something(s) needed to change (who is centered, letting the fellows guide where the conversation goes vs feeling committed to an agenda, emphasizing power and oppression in our systems, etc) to seeing it become a reality in R1 of Virtual National, I've been so inspired and proud to be part of an organization that allows space and time for this to happen.  Special shout out to Luz for her vision , commitment and passion for this curriculum!

I love XP pollination! 

]]> 2020-12-16 14:37:19 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1024094779 It has been so inspiring and exciting to learn from all of the team about the ways they hold and flex with the content. In particular, PNW1 opened a wide door to flow with the group while staying wholly centered in the core goals of the curriculum. https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1024833821 2020-12-16 17:11:22 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1024833821 I'm really drawn by thinking about how we can more purposefully integrate DEI across the whole retreat arc by weaving threads throughout. As a new team member this year doing retreats for the first time, I've felt so welcomed and supported by others (ELPers and Kevin) to take an active part during retreats and try to raise up some of those threads. https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1024850615 2020-12-16 17:14:41 UTC https://padlet.com/charlie226/28uq6jbdxhjo6o37/wish/1024850615 Evolving our curriculum to meet the needs of this time is really exciting.
