SANKOFA SISTER CIRCLES

SANKOFA SISTER CIRCLES

Our sister circles are culturally affirming, healing spaces meant to inspire self-care via collective and communal care.

SUPPORT & SISTERHOOD

The Code Switch Sankofa Sister Circle leverages the power of mentored relationships and is led by a Code Switch community member with experience facilitating restorative circles. Rooted in the African principles Ubuntu and Sankofa, they feature restorative circle process, mindfulness, and sisterhood bonding activities.

Participating girls build self-confidence, resilience, racial literacy, a social justice consciousness, and strong communication & leadership skills. They also set goals, develop an action plan to achieve goals, and actualize freedom-dreams to academic achievement, health & wellness, and positive post-secondary success.
