Justice Circles

Our monthly Justice Circle sessions provide a safe space to honor our SPH community members’ presence, dignity, and contributions. These 1-hour gatherings focus on reflecting on our connectedness, engaging in meaningful conversations, and unpacking current events and public health issues impacting our communities.

Below are some examples of the topics and themes we've discussed:

Past Events:

Spring 2024: We featured a special Justice Circle edition honoring Women’s History Month. Panelists discussed public health matters concerning women’s health and well-being.

November 2023: The theme was self-care and mindfulness. Assistant Director Erin Woo, M.Ed., from the Mindful Center, led a mindfulness exercise and facilitated a discussion on self-care amid the unrest in the Middle East.

April 2023: We addressed Anti-Asian hate, which saw significant participation from the community.

March 2023: Our session celebrated Women’s History Month by exploring the contributions and challenges faced by women in public health.

February 2023: We focused on the impact of Tyre Nichols during Black History Month and discussed related issues.
