Join Teresa Sandoval-Schaefer, DS, RWP, FNTP, to learn practical tips you can implement immediately to reduce and manage your stress, and live a more full, productive life.

Ameen was trapped in hiding by ISIS for nearly two years in his hometown of Mosul. During that time, he wrote an extraordinary repertoire of powerfully emotional music that traverses the range of emotions: fear, defeat, hope and rebirth.
“Opposing Racism through the Lens of Franco-American Experiences” showcases stories of New England’s Franco-Americans who were targeted by white supremacy groups in the 1920s. New England’s Franco-Americans were not assimilating into the American way of life as other immigrants were doing (e.g., they strove to preserve their French language). This event is one of a series of in-person workshops throughout the Midwest, using selections from Ben Levine’s “Waking Up French” documentary to share the little-known and startling history of Franco-American oppression.
