Eroc Arroyo-Montano, our director of cultural organizing, has some updates and photos to share from trainings he facilitated in May!

Eroc’s training with Zumix in East Boston:

On May 11, Eroc facilitated a 1-day training at Zumix in East Boston, an organization that offers programs and holds events to empower youth through music, technology, and creative employment.

Facilitating at the Healing Educators Retreat:

In late May, Eroc was invited back for the second year in a row to co-facilitate at the healing for educators retreat organized by the “Our Fire Collective.” Bearing witness to trauma takes its toll. This retreat for public school teachers, titled “Boston Teachers Heal in Solidarity,” created a space for educators to build community together and find new ways of sustaining themselves.
