About the Story Workshop for Racial Trauma & Healing, November 7-9, 2025:

The Allender Center’s core belief is that we are best known—and our stories are best seen—in the company of others. The Story Workshop for Racial Trauma & Healing from the Allender Center at the Seattle School is a profound event that invites you to explore the themes of your life, particularly core themes common to those within racially marginalized communities who have experienced personal and collective trauma.

This Story Workshop is specifically designed for, and led by, Black, Indigenous, Latino/a, and Asian/Pacific Islander people as the global majority of the world’s population. By focusing on your experiences, we can create a safer space for you to explore your identity and learn more about your culture and family story. In the context of a supportive and facilitated environment through teaching and group work, you will receive encouragement and wisdom as you seek to understand, write, tell, and live your story in deeper and more transformative ways.

Offered in a live, interactive, online format, the Story Workshop for Racial Trauma & Healing is accessible from the comfort of your own home.
