Teaching
tangible practices in
safer spaces
both in person
and online
Dr. Smith creates what she has coined a “safer environment for learning”. A safer space acknowledges there is no such thing as a safe space. Through cultural humility, respect for difference, and clear communication she creates an atmosphere where difficult subjects can be unpacked and examined. Attendees leave the space with tangible practices they can apply immediately to their daily lives.
