SUMMARY:Rebellious Lawyering Conference at Yale Law School
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open here for the March 11th event.  \n\n\n\nThe Rebellious Lawyering conference brings together practitioners\, law students\, and community activists from around the country to discuss innovative\, progressive approaches to law and social change. The conference\, grounded in the spirit of Gerald Lopez’s Rebellious Lawyering\, seeks to build a community of law students\, practitioners\, and activists seeking to work in the service of social change movements and to challenge hierarchies of race\, wealth\, gender\, and expertise within legal practice and education. \n\n\n\nThis year’s conference will be a smaller version of the Rebellious Lawyering conferences of the past. As we re-ground and organize around this important\, nurturing tradition\, we are deeply grateful to you for being a part of the Rebellious Lawyering community and for sharing your time\, knowledge\, and reflections with us.

SUMMARY:New Haven Childcare Rally on the Green
DESCRIPTION:Location: New Haven Green: Across the City Hall\, 165 Church St. New Haven\, CT \n\n\n\nOn the morning of Wednesday\, March 8\, there will be a big rally and sing-a-long taking place on the New Haven Green from 8:00-9:00am\, as a follow-up to last year’s Morning Without Child Care\, which was very successful in pushing for early childhood funding in this year’s state budget. This year’s rally is being planned by Child Care for Connecticut’s Future\, which is a coalition of parents\, providers\, and advocates working to secure strong\, long-term investments in our state’s early learning system\, and it is one of several rallies happening around the state on that day. March 8 is also International Women’s Day\, which is significant since the vast majority of childcare workers are women.

SUMMARY:Advocating for Refugees in our Community: Civic Allyship Workshop featuring IRIS
DESCRIPTION:Dwight Hall Civic Allyship workshop featuring IRIS: Integrated Refugee and Immigrant Services. This workshop will feature an overview of IRIS’s programs and discuss the experience of refugee families resettling in the United States. Attendees will also hear about upcoming advocacy opportunities including a virtual border crossing. \n\n\n\nThis hybrid event is open to the public. Visitors to campus must comply with Yale COVID-19 Visitor Policy as described at: https://covid19.yale.edu/visitors-policy.  The zoom event is part of the Journeys Toward Justice series\, a multi-college collaboration spotlighting changemakers across the country who are driving justice and equity forward.  Please register here to attend virtually. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout IRIS: \n\n\n\nRefugee families who arrive from overseas come to the U.S. with virtually no material possessions. They have lost homes\, friends\, family\, country\, culture\, and jobs. Most do not speak any English. They have no income\, and many are victims of trauma\, with physical or mental health needs. As great as their initial needs are\, their potential to enrich our community is even greater. \n\n\n\nAsylum seekers\, asylees\, and other immigrant families who seek assistance stabilizing their family situation often have many of the same needs as refugees coming from overseas. However\, since they are already in the U.S.\, it is often the case that they have some limited resources or extended support network that can be built upon with the help of IRIS. \n\n\n\nIRIS provides targeted wrap-around services for all clients\, using a strength-based assessment model\, that offers long-term support for successful integration. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n Debra Riding brings over 3 decades of experience in New Haven’s public\, charter\, and independent schools to her role as Director of Education at IRIS.  As an educator\, she prioritizes cross-cultural understanding\, experiential learning\, student empowerment\, and social justice.  Debra has degrees from Yale and Quinnipiac. \n\n\n\n Born in Kabul\, Afghanistan\, and resettled in New Haven in 2016\, Hossna Samadi has passionately devoted the past five years to advocating for and serving refugees and immigrants in New Haven in many different capacities. Having experienced the challenges of being a refugee firsthand\, she is passionate about supporting\, assisting and amplifying their voices\, particularly Afghan women. In her volunteer work with Integrated Refugee & Immigrant Services (IRIS)\, she serves as a member of the Cultural Companion Ally Team and as an Ambassador\, speaking to a wide range of audiences. Samadi is the co-founder of the Collective for Refugee and Immigrant Women’s Wellbeing\, whose grant-sponsored pilot project partners with Yale University’s Program on Recovery and Health in the Community. She is a Program Associate at Sanctuary Kitchen by CitySeed. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAbout the Dwight Hall Civic Allyship Initiative: \n\n\n\nDwight Hall’s Civic Allyship Initiative is elevating the existing work of community organizers in New Haven and beyond. The program confronts complex social challenges\, convening criminal justice advocates\, grassroots activists\, currently and formerly incarcerated people\, students\, and professors in equitable relationships through workshops\, trainings\, and research. Together\, these allies are utilizing new grassroots organizing strategies\, developing opportunities for underrepresented populations in civic leadership\, and laying the groundwork for substantive policy reforms.

SUMMARY:Volunteer at the First Northeast Disability and Agriculture Conference Presented By Healing By Growing Farms - Spring 2023 Service Series
DESCRIPTION:https://cglink.me/2dA/r1993243 \n\n\n\nVolunteers are needed to support this landmark conference being held in Connecticut. Dwight Hall will assist in facilitating transportation to and from the conference. Volunteers are asked to register both on this Yale Connect page and via the conference registration page (more info below). \n\n\n\nAbout the Conference: \n\n\n\nThe Northeast Disability and Agriculture Conference is a first-time regional event designed to educate and empower the agricultural community. Through workshops and presentations\, farmer attendees will learn how to better advocate for themselves\, and service provider attendees will learn how to identify potential distress risks within the community. Together attendees will learn how to build a network sharing skills and resources to improve accessibility and reduce industry incidents of suicide. \n\n\n\nAbout Healing by Growing Farms: \n\n\n\nThe conference is presented by Healing by Growing Farms\, a community that fosters a holistic healing approach that reconnects trauma survivors to themselves\, nature\, and the environment. We seek to empower individuals to engage in sustainable and regenerative permaculture. \n\n\n\nInformation for Volunteers: \n\n\n\nThis will be an amazing educational and life experience for volunteers as they engage and interact with attendees from over 7 states and with a community of people with ALL abilities from all walks of life from food justice to food growers to environmental justice to forestry\, fishery and mental health to name a few. \n\n\n\nResponsibilities: Will include but are not limited to the following as other needs may come up on the day of the event. \n\n\n\n* Set-up/Tear-down \n\n\n\nChairs\, tables\, a podium\, microphones\, etc. are all a big part of our conference. Rooms have to be put together with adequate seating for attendees and often\, this involves a quick change to the room layout for another session. Volunteers help to quickly get these spaces set-up and then dismantled again are vital. \n\n\n\n* Coat Check \n\n\n\nPeople don’t really like walking around conferences with their coats and bulky belongings. Most sessions have chairs packed-in pretty close and there’s not a whole lot of room for people to be lugging around a lot of stuff especially when they have physical limitations. Having a few volunteers that will work at an area specifically designed for people to leave and then later pick-up their coats is vital to our event. \n\n\n\n* Greeters/Ushers \n\n\n\nHelping to fill rooms in a systematic way. For the large sessions\, it’s important to evenly fill the space. Having ushers to show people to a specific seat is definitely helpful. Even if we aren’t ushering people\, just having a greeter to help attendees know where to go or just verify that they are at the “right place” is a necessary service. \n\n\n\n* Parking Attendants: As this is an ALL-ABILITIES EVENT and over 40% of the survey respondents reported having some type of limitation \n\n\n\nParking space is always a huge concern and having people that will direct cars will make the most of our available space. It’s one of the more labor-intensive jobs at the conference\, but one of the most important given all the potential limitations attendees may have and the weather. \n\n\n\n* Runners \n\n\n\nMiscellaneous needs pop-up at a moment’s notice. Something may be needed in one of the breakout session rooms\, or a message needs to get posted that a session is going to be in a different location. When things like this happen\, having someone that can quickly attend to it is crucial. These runners keep the pace of the conference moving and help keep our event host and volunteer manager on the know with happenings. \n\n\n\n* Meals/Coffee/Water Station \n\n\n\nKeeping everyone hydrated and fueled at the conference is important. Having someone help set up the meals (breakfast and lunch) and monitor the snacks/coffee and/or water for attendees is really important especially when done with a smile. \n\n\n\n* Information Table Attendant \n\n\n\nThere’s plenty happening during a conference and attendees will frequently have questions. They’ll need location information\, time information and sometimes just a little help to find the best session for them\, the healthcare room and the resources room. \n\n\n\n* Registration Desk \n\n\n\nHaving people to get attendees registered and off on their way at the conference is a very important first point of contact. Smiling volunteers that help people get started at the conference is as important as the front desk clerk at a hotel. \n\n\n\nHelp with displaying event signage\, giving badges\, life saver cards\, signing attendees out at the end of the event and sending them to get their stipends\, as well as monitoring the virtual attendance; tracking and recording for all (4) sessions will be vital to ensure we capture all our numbers for funder reporting purposes after the event. \n\n\n\n* Workshop Monitors \n\n\n\nSometimes called “presiders\,” these volunteers stay in the workshop rooms to make sure everything is running smoothly. They attend to anything the presider may need during the session and act as an official from the conference. \n\n\n\n* Copywriter \n\n\n\nAfter the event we will need at least one volunteer to help us develop communications including: Content on website\, Resources Library on website (we are collecting virtual resources) and the creation of an online and print Newsletter with post conference highlights\, pictures\, stories and the such. \n\n\n\n* Wayfinding and support \n\n\n\nVolunteers to provide assistance to guests throughout the conference including connecting with the Mental Health Triage Licensed Professional who will be available for attendees at the event. \n\n\n\n* Audience Q&A \n\n\n\nDuring the conference we may need to facilitate Q&A with the audience which may involve roving microphones. The volunteer will aid with the distribution of microphones amongst the audience as needed. \n\n\n\n* Social Media \n\n\n\nVolunteer to run our social media accounts for the day featuring live stories\, interviews and photos to make our event engaging from start to finish. We already have a pre-conference event consent attendees completed as part of their registration process allowing us to use their audio\, pics\, etc. \n\n\n\n* Raffles & Fundraisers \n\n\n\nDedicated volunteers roam throughout the conference to engage with attendees and sell tickets for our social impact cause at Healing By Growing Farms. \n\n\n\nHow to Sign Up:1. Volunteers should register on the Yale Connect event page. \n\n\n\n2. Volunteers should also register at the conference page located here:https://forms.gle/jCui5va7KLwBFz526

SUMMARY:A Beginner's Guide to America with author Roya Hakakian
DESCRIPTION:Register here.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAt a time when America seems more divided than ever\, Roya Hakakian\, a naturalized immigrant shares her American experience\, and tells others what it took to fall in love with America\, despite its flaws. A Beginner’s Guide to America: For the Immigrant and the Curious (Knopf) exemplifies how one immigrant wishes to do her part to heal our national wounds and enable the native-born to see what they can’t see. \n\n\n\nWhile it disguises itself as a manual for newcomers to America\, it is truly Roya’s way of talking to the native-born Americans and reminding them of the significance of their racial multiplicity\, founding ideals\, and democratic principles\, not only for the sake of America herself\, but for all others who have known and are fighting totalitarianism. \n\n\n\nAs shifting demographics and our divided political culture make anti-immigrant backlash stronger than ever\, it’s all the more important that all Americans hear Roya’s story and those by others included in the book. \n\n\n\nSanctuary Kitchen will be offering a special menu for this event. Registered participants for this event will be given the option to purchase a meal between Tuesday\, January 24th and Monday\, January 30th with a curbside pickup time of Friday\, February 3rd from 4 to 6pm – in time to pickup and be ready to join the virtual event at 7pm. We will offer two pick up locations: Yale’s OISS Office (421 Temple Street\, New Haven\, CT 06511) and at Sanctuary Kitchen (109 Legion Avenue\, New Haven\, CT 06519). \n\n\n\nPlease note that this event Is private\, and the zoom link is reserved only for ticket holders. The book is available for purchase online\, as well as at local New Haven bookstores. \n\n\n\nWe are honored to host this event with our partners at the Yale University Office of International Students and Scholars\, Yale University’s Jackson Institute for Global Affairs\, The MacMillan Center at Yale University\, and Dwight Hall at Yale University. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAbout Roya: ROYA HAKAKIAN is the author of Assassins of the Turquoise Palace and Journey from the Land of No\, and has published two collections of poetry in Persian. Her essays have appeared in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal\, and on NPR’s All Things Considered. She has collaborated on programming for leading journalism units in network television\, including 60 Minutes. She is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship\, and served on the editorial board of World Affairs. Since 2015\, she has taught at THREAD\, a writing workshop at Yale\, and is a fellow at the Davenport College at Yale. She lives in Connecticut. \n\n\n\nAbout Carlos: Carlos Eire\, who received his PhD from Yale in 1979\, specializes in the social\, intellectual\, religious\, and cultural history of late medieval and early modern Europe\, with a focus on both the Protestant and Catholic Reformations; the history of popular piety; and the history of the supernatural\, and the history of death. Before joining the Yale faculty in 1996\, he taught at St. John’s University in Minnesota and the University of Virginia\, and was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton for two years. He is the author of War Against the Idols: The Reformation of Worship From Erasmus to Calvin (1986); From Madrid to Purgatory: The Art and Craft of Dying in Sixteenth Century Spain (1995); A Very Brief History of Eternity (2010); Reformations: The Early Modern World (2016); and The Life of Saint Teresa of Avila: A Biography (2019). And he is co-author of Jews\, Christians\, Muslims: An Introduction to Monotheistic Religions (1997). He has also ventured into the twentieth century and the Cuban Revolution in the memoir Waiting for Snow in Havana (2003)\, which won the National Book Award in Nonfiction in the United States and has been translated into more than a dozen languages. His second memoir\, Learning to Die in Miami (2010)\, explores the exile experience. A past president of the Society for Reformation Research\, he is currently researching attitudes toward miracles in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. His recent book Reformations won the R.R.Hawkins Prize for Best Book of the Year from the American Publishers Association\, as well as the award for Best Book in the Humanities. It was also awarded the Jaroslav Pelikan Prize by Yale University Press. All of his books are banned in Cuba\, where he has been proclaimed an enemy of the state – a distinction he regards as the highest of all honors. \n\n\n\nAbout Sanctuary Kitchen: At Sanctuary Kitchen\, we partner with immigrants and refugees to build economic opportunity and authentic connections through food. Through our culinary training program and social enterprise\, Sanctuary Kitchen provides professional development and employment at an above-market wage for immigrants\, refugees\, and asylum seekers in the Greater New Haven area.

Take your impact to the next level and sign up to be a Community Conversation Facilitator. This is a new training offered in partnership with the Integrated Justice and Social Change Collaborative at Southern Connecticut State University. On January 27th from 1:00pm-3:00pm\, attend an interactive virtual workshop & community building conversation to equip you with the tools to hold conversations around equity in your own circles – your workplace\, place of worship\, family\, neighborhood\, academic department\, etc.  Encourage others to sign up for the Equity Challenge with you and build your skills to hold a conversation afterwards to process and continue the learning.  Open to any level of experience.  After the end of the Equity Challenge\, Community Conversation Facilitators are encouraged to hold their own community conversations and will be invited to a virtual debrief meeting in February (Date TBD). Sign up to be a facilitator by indicating your interest via the registration link.

SUMMARY:Volunteer with Sunrise Cafe - Spring 2023 Service Series
DESCRIPTION:Full event information can be found here.  \n\n\n\nStart your morning off on a great note! Join Dwight Hall Wednesday mornings to volunteer at Sunrise Cafe. Volunteers will meet in front of Dwight Hall at 6:00am\, walk together to Sunrise Cafe\, and will return to campus by 9:00am. \n\n\n\nVolunteers are strongly encouraged to wear N95 masks during service. \n\n\n\nSunrise Cafe has been serving breakfast without charge to New Haven’s homeless and hungry since 2015. Each weekday morning\, the Cafe welcomes guests to the undercroft of St. Paul and St. James\, near Wooster Square and three blocks south of the New Haven Green with white tablecloths\, flowers and a rotating menu of fresh\, warm\, nutritious home-cooked food. Your generosity opens our doors. \n\n\n\nCheerful volunteers take each order individually\, deliver the breakfast to our guest and help our paid chef in the kitchen. Thelma Ragsdale\, Operations Manager\, and our volunteers ensure every guest is warmly welcomed. \n\n\n\nSunrise Cafe is uniquely welcoming and secure\, based on trust and mutual respect\, and the rapport built between the volunteer servers and our guests. With a warm welcome and just two rules – no drugs on the premises and no arguments – Sunrise has become a community center for the homeless\, a place to come every weekday morning and gather with friends. \n\n\n\nHungry friends come for the home-cooked\, nourishing breakfast and stay for simple medical services offered by the Cornell Scott Health Center and access to support from social services to find housing. \n\n\n\nSunrise provides a unique opportunity to bridge New Haven’s inequalities that separate us from one another. Volunteers come once and become regulars. Guests and volunteers become friends and greet one another on the street.
