Are YOU ready to increase the impact of your economic and racial justice work?

Hire UFE to design and lead a workshop or training. Or hire us to provide leadership development and culture-of care services. Our offerings will be tailored to the needs of your organization or community. A full description of our workshops and other services can be downloaded here.

WORKSHOPS and TRAININGS 

We provide workshops, trainings, facilitation, leadership development, and mentorship using popular education methodologies. Popular education is a form of learning that starts with participants’ experiences, builds critical thinking through dialogue and reflection, and leads to strategic action. We use language justice practices to create inclusive and democratic conversations across language. And we incorporate circle work, arts and culture, and somatic practices as core components of our healing for liberation tools in economic justice work.

UFE’s workshops can be delivered “as is,” or by mixing and matching content and skill-building to meet the specific needs of participants. Any workshop can be built into a full training. We can also “train the trainers” who will teach others to use popular education, language justice, and healing justice approaches in your work. Most workshops are offered in Spanish and English. Some are available in Cantonese or Mandarin.

Know that UFE prides itself on creating a workshop or training specifically for your organization – whether you are a base-builder, a group pushing for progressive and equitable public policy, an organization shifting your practices to align with values of inclusion and self-determination, or doing other community-based work.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND CULTURE-OF-CARE SERVICES

In addition to workshops and trainings, UFE’s skilled facilitators and educators provide direct support to organizations and leaders. 

• Coaching and mentorship. Are you looking for support to use popular education methodologies in your community engagement work? Do you need guidance to adapt UFE’s workshop curricula to address the issues most important to your community or campaign? Are you struggling to create inclusive bilingual or multilingual meetings? Reach out to talk about customizing a coaching or mentorship arrangement to meet your needs.

• Guided Circle work. Are you looking for a facilitated opportunity to deepen relationships among your team? to talk through challenging subjects? to grieve a loss that impacts your organization or community? Invite one of our facilitators to lead a circle or a series of circles for your group.

• Conflict resolution. Is the good work of your organization running aground on conflict between team members? Would you like to get unstuck, increase connection, and prioritize relationship building? Reach out to see if our facilitation would be a good fit for your circumstance.

RATES

For groups with the capacity to pay, your fee is an important source of revenue for UFE. We use a sliding scale rate chart based on organizational budget size. In addition to trainer fees, there may be direct expenses for some workshops and trainings (travel, interpretation, accommodations, child care, etc.). Full rate information is available here. If you are interested in partnering with us and are unable to pay the posted rates, please let us know.
