This guided story takes place throughout Black history through mindfulness practices, relaxing participants and fostering empathy.
About this Event
We yearn to heal our generational racial trauma and ongoing racial divisions. There can be no healing without understanding, and true understanding comes from experience. None of us can fully experience the life of another, but each of us has a powerful capacity for empathy that can be unlocked when we relax the body and mind and open the heart.
These guided, mindful experiences will bring you through four periods of significance in African-American history.
The Kniffley Racial Trauma Therapy Model (KRTTM) training program addresses three areas important to supporting BIPOC individuals who have experienced race-related stress and trauma: (1) content knowledge concerning the physiological, psychological, and relational impact of race-related stress and trauma, (2) the utilization of evidence-based assessment tools for racial identity development, quantifying discriminatory experiences, and determining the physical and emotional impact of racially stressful events, and (3) the application of culturally relevant therapeutic techniques rooted in racial identity exploration/development, racial trauma processing, and skill development. Two virtual self-paced training programs are offered including an Adult/Teen Racial Trauma Therapy module and a Youth Racial Trauma Therapy module

Moving Black America Forward: Noir Black Business Clubs
The Chamber has begun establishing Noir Black Business Clubs on college and university campuses across the country, as well as the creation of online clubs for high school, middle school, and elementary school students, with the hope of increasing the number of successful black entrepreneurs and black corporate business professionals over time.
The program is free to all students, and educational sessions are facilitated by professors from participating colleges, universities, collaborative programs, and industry professionals. Programming is centered around The Chamber’s 10 Pillars, which are critical to the success of Black America. The first 4 Pillars are centered on Business Education and support for Black Entrepreneurs to Start, Small Black Businesses to Grow, Midsize Businesses to Sustain, and Black Corporate Professionals to Rise. The remaining 6 Pillars are centered around Community “Root Causes” and programming pertaining to Black Community Trauma Education, Black Teen Higher Professional Career Attainment, Non-College Bound Apprenticeships and Job Training Programs, Welfare Reform, Homeownership, and Black Talent Corporate Placement. Students will also learn financial management, public speaking, presenting, resume building, as well as business and dining etiquette. The program will also pair students with mentors, internships, and career placement opportunities.
