SUMMARY:Workshop: Self-Care and Collective Care in Our Work to Support Migrant Workers
DESCRIPTION:COVID-19 has created challenges in supporting migrant workers in ways that we couldn’t have imagined months ago. The pandemic has disrupted much of our lives and ways of working- bringing disconnection and fear.\n\nResisting burnout in this moment means we need to go deeper than the “self-care” we are normally prescribed and look at community collective care and our mental wellness through considering cultural\, spiritual\, relational and community-based ways to collectively support ourselves and our communities.\n\nHow do we support migrant workers who are in precarious work and whose health is at risk? How do we respond to isolation and fear? How do we embrace collective care for ourselves as workers so we can keep the care of migrant workers at the heart of our work? We will look at staying with connection\, doing justice and community collective care as acts of resistance and believed-in-hope in this work.\n\nThe same workshop will be held on both dates. Please ensure that you only register for one workshop as space is limited. \n\n\nEvent Details & Registration\n\n\n\nDate and time: \n\nTuesday\, February 2nd\, 2021\,9AM -12 PM\nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER FOR WORKSHOP 4\n\n\n\n\nLocation: Zoom | You will receive more details & the web link via e-mail after registering\n\n(Please note that this workshop will not be recorded or available for later viewing)\n\n\n\nPresenter: \n\nVikki Reynolds PhD RCC is an activist/therapist from Vancouver\, Canada\, who works to bridge the worlds of social justice activism and therapy.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Financial Literacy: Introduction to Banking and Credit in Canada for Migrant Workers
