Latiné Circle: Sanando Juntos
The purpose of the Latine Circle is to sanar juntos (heal together) with other Latine —Indigenous, Black, Asian, and/or mixed-race humans with roots in what is now considered ‘Latin America’. This drop-in group is open to bilingual (spanish and english speaking), monolingual english speaking, and monolingual spanish speaking individuals.
Together, we will explore core themes such as:
• Belonging: reflecting on Latine and ‘American’ cultural
expectations and identity
• Boundaries
• Colonization and history
• Stress and trauma
• Grief
• Safety
• Immigration: mixed-status families
• Healthy relationships
• Mental health stigma
Group Format: This is a drop-in group and you’re welcome to come to try it out. Each session opens with a brief grounding mindfulness practice followed by a collaborative dialogue and open discussion creating a welcoming and validating environment centered on solidarity, mutual lived experience, empathy, and presence.
Cost: Free to existing TRC members. For the public, suggested donation: $0–$30 per group. If donating would keep you from coming, please come anyway. We value everyone's presence regardless of their means.
When: Every Monday from 6:30PM - 8PM PST, starting Monday November 9th, 2026
Where: Microsoft Teams (fill out the interest form and we’ll send you the link)
