Inspired Allies Certification Course
A 3-module certificate course designed to support professionals of all disciplines to enhance BOTH their confidence AND competence in better supporting members of the LGBTQIA+ community. This curriculum will allow you to increase your allyship skills.
Our Philosophy
As both a clinical social worker, a DEI&B consultant and educator, and a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I approach my work with partners through multiple lenses of both professional and personal lived experiences. These different hats that I wear don’t simply go on and off but rather, they stack up on one another, allowing me to bring a unique style to those I’m so honored to work with.
Informed
We stay on the cutting edge of your industry to provide you meaningful experiences that balance innovative ideas with the tried-and-true approaches and best practices for your particular field.
Compassionate
We understand the needs of both leaders and front line team members. We approach everything with an open mind, a desire to learn, and a passion for teaching, all while keeping the most important people at front of mind…your team and your customers.
Professional
We bring our years of experience to you and your teams. With a sharp eye and attention for detail, we seek to create meaningful encounters that your team will be talking about for months to come.
