The Resilient Guilford Network is an action oriented, trauma resiliency network of systems and collaborative leaders who work together to build and support safe, secure, and nurturing communities. We are committed to using a trauma responsive and racial equity framework to prevent and heal trauma while strengthening individual, organizational, and community resilience across Guilford County. These gatherings offer space to learn, connect, and consider actionable ways we can improve safety, wellness, and belonging for all.
THIS MONTH’S MEETING: Stronger Voices, Stronger Minds, Stronger Communities centers on the importance of culturally responsive practices during Minority Mental Health Month. This session explores the connection between representation, access, and community well being, and how trusted voices within diverse communities help reduce stigma and strengthen support systems. Participants will examine approaches for improving access to care, honoring cultural perspectives, and fostering environments where individuals feel seen and heard. The session offers practical guidance for building stronger networks of support that reflect the strengths and needs of the communities we serve.
We hope to see you and please share broadly to those who may be interested in attending. Please email us if you would like to receive reminders about these meeting.
