Our Training
A practice of racial equity requires ongoing learning and self-reflection.
Race Forward offers comprehensive, interactive training to individuals, groups, organizations, and government agencies committed to taking action for racial justice and a multiracial democracy.
We understand that in order to do this work, people must be able to talk about it with normalized language, shared understandings, and a true desire to operationalize racial equity practices and policies.
Our training is designed to help participants build a shared racial analysis, apply shared tools, develop shared relationships, and move toward a shared vision for racial justice and multiracial democracy.
We offer individual, group, organizational, and customized training.
