We invite you to a Community Conversation around Increasing the Sense of Belonging at the School of Social Work on Monday, September 30, 2024, from 12 pm- 1 pm. 

A Sense of Belonging- the subjective feeling of deep conversation with social groups, physical places, and individual and collective experiences- is a fundamental human need that predicts numerous mental, physical, social, economic, and behavioral outcomes. This is a time for conversation – to share feelings, raise concerns, and talk together as a school community. To aid the conversation, space will be limited. (We know it's coming up soon, so if you miss it, don't fear!  If there is a lot of interest in this topic, we can hold another session soon.)

With these smaller Community Conversations, our hope is to explore restorative dialogue and build community, creating a space where we are all teachers and learners. We will draw heavily on practices from intergroup dialogue and restorative justice.

September 30, 2024 - 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM ET

Join Betsy Williams, Writing Skills Coordinator, and Jennifer Nason, Social Science Librarian, in person for an overview of expectations and resources for graduate-level academic writing and library research.

Short presentations will leave plenty of time for your questions.

All MSW students are welcome to join us. You are welcome to bring your lunch.

We also offer this same workshop on zoom on Mon Sept 30, 6-7pm. The zoom session will be recorded.
