✨ A little change of plans for tonight! ✨

Instead of our usual Mindful Movement session, tonight we’re slowing down with a Mindful Journaling & Doodling Hour 💚📝

Join us at TODAY AT 5 PM for a cozy, creative space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself. We’ll move through optional journaling and doodling prompts with calming music in the background, inspired by the work of Recovery of Your Inner Child by Dr. Lucia Capacchione.

Grab your journal, favorite pens, art supplies, or simply whatever helps you feel cozy. ☕️🎨

And remember, this is a drop-in space! Join us whenever you can and stay for as long as your schedule allows. Whether that’s the full hour or just a few quiet minutes, you are welcome. 💙

📅 Tonight
⏰ 5:00 PM PT
💻 Join us on Zoom

Come as you are, bring what you have, and carve out a little time to meet yourself on the page. 🌿✨

🎉 We’re celebrating THREE more years of LAEP and 21CSLA! 💙💚

We are thrilled to share that Los Angeles Education Partnership has been awarded the 21st Century California School Leadership Academy (21CSLA) grant, sustaining LAEP CORE’s work to support educational equity leaders for another three-year cohort!

For the past six years, it has been our privilege and honor to support leaders like you across Southern California. Together, we’ve created meaningful spaces where leaders can connect, reflect, deepen their learning, and continue advancing equity within their schools and communities, all while we learned from and with this incredible community.

We are grateful for the opportunity to continue this work and to support YOU through 2029. 💚

This next chapter means even more opportunities for learning and connection, along with continued support for leaders doing profoundly important equity work every day.

To everyone who has been part of this journey, thank you for trusting us to be part of yours! We can’t wait to see what we can build together. ✨

Some conversations stay with you long after the conference ends.

At Embodying Equity: A Call to Action, attendees stepped into spaces of honesty, vulnerability, reflection, and courage. Together, we held conversations that were not always easy, but deeply necessary. From sharing, lived experiences to challenging systems and reimagining what equity can look like in our schools and communities, this work requires us to lean in with openness and care. 💙

Thank you to every attendee who showed up fully, listen deeply, and contributed to these meaningful moments of connection and growth. ✨

At Embodying Equity: A Call to Action, we intentionally created spaces that centered wellness, reflection, healing, and care for educators and leaders. 💙

From movement and mindfulness offerings to moments of connection and restoration, we believe equity work must also include caring for ourselves and one another.
