Here we recognize privilege and oppression.  We want to hear how your story was shaped by societal behaviors and beliefs about race, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexuality, disability, immigration or socioeconomic status. We acknowledge and treat the trauma caused by racism, sexism, heterosexism, ageism, xenophobia, ableism, classism, size-ism, and religious prejudice.  In our own development, we examine our own biases, work on continuous improvement.  We can also find empathy for those who do not understand their privilege and consider it our responsibility to guide them in that work.
