Stand Against Racism is a signature event of the YWCA national network.

YWCA Central Maine has held an annual Stand Against Racism event bi-annually in April since 2012.

Restorative justice is a response to wrongdoing that prioritizes repairing harm and recognizes that maintaining positive relationships with others is a core human need. Through mediation, a wrongdoer seeks to repair damage they have done to another. This conference will provide partners and participants a working knowledge on:

• Microaggressions: How they harm and how to navigate their effect on personal and professional relationships.
• Healing and Conflict Resolution: Create safer neighborhoods, more peaceful work environments, and healthier communities through accountability and reparation.
• Mediating Uncomfortable Situations: Equip managers and human resources to apply restorative justice practices to promote healing and understanding, and less distress.
