In 2024-25 the JWOC Resilience Circle is a community of practice for Black women and more broadly identified women of color who are interested in exploring how rest and liberating themselves from the systemic implications of Anti-Blackness and Anti-Black Racism can change their lives. Across three retreats, women leaders of color are invited to develop and share wisdom from their diverse narratives, revisit their personal ecology, explore their spiritual traditions, and value the diverse cultural entry points to rest that inform BIPOC women’s collective work of deepening equity, justice and liberation within themselves and their communities. 

The JWOC Resilience Circle Program provides Black women and women of color leaders with opportunities to heal, repair, and transform their minds, bodies, and souls. Transformation is experienced through retreats, community support, and educational resources. Healing and repair is galvanized through practices of accountability and reciprocity within our cohort experience. Sisters deepen their liberation by offering each other their vision of community love, mother-work, and self-care.
