Community Care Roundtable with California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Community Safety Partners
We Are the Medicine Convening
In August, RYSE and Pacific Southwest MHTTC co-hosted “We Are the Medicine: Culturally Sustaining & Healing Practices for Youth & Young Adult Service Providers.”
Over 60 health care providers across the country, state, and Bay Area convened on-campus at RYSE to share healing practices that draw upon indigenous, holistic, and somatic techniques.
Listening Campaign in a New Era: Towards Loving and Just Systems for Contra Costa Youth
RYSE was born from Black, Indigenous and Young People of Color creating new ways to make meaning of loss, grief, and injustice. This meaning-making over two decades has cultivated youth space, place, and power. Over the past few years, young people have experienced life-altering events that no other generation has, such as enduring a global pandemic, with few opportunities to reflect on how this has influenced what they want and need.
