Camp is Intersectional: Are Your Staff Training Sessions Meeting the Moment?

We all want to ensure that our camp team is equipped to handle anything that comes their way during the camp season. Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility training is imperative for fostering both safe and brave spaces for campers and for your team. We are experiencing a challenging world where the perpetual gloom and doom of the news brings challenges many may not, and cannot, understand. This workshop will dissect how we can further set ourselves up for success by looking at our trainings through the multi-layer lenses that come with intersectionality, power, and privilege, particularly for our LGBTQ+ and BIPOC campers and staff members. This session will provide both a toolkit of ideas to bring back to your team, as well as a real-life simulation on how to use the tools provided for both in-person and virtual training sessions.
