Wellness Together: Building Resilience in California’s Nonprofit Community
July 31
Burnout. Fatigue. Isolation. Just simply tired. These words echo across so many conversations had with grantee partners as the Community Engagement and Strategic Partnerships Officer at Cal Wellness.
The work of advancing health and racial equity can be exhausting, even more so in times like these as California copes with devastating wildfires and nonprofit leaders face the stress of a changing political environment.
That’s why The California Wellness Foundation is launching Wellness Together, an event series supporting the well-being of anyone working to advance health and social justice in California, whether you work at a nonprofit organization or do community-building work.
Wellness Together will offer four virtual sessions featuring wellness practitioners who will provide coaching, tools and guided practices like meditation and breathwork. Additionally, they will host in-person events in Los Angeles and Oakland specifically their grantee partners.
The sessions will be led by Our Own, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit focused on dismantling barriers to racial injustice through mental and physical health, nutrition, education and entrepreneurship.
