Peer Network for Organizers of BIPOC UU Groups

Join us for our monthly DRUUMM Peer Network Meetings held on the 1st Wednesday of every month from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM Eastern Time.

These gatherings are an opportunity to connect, learn, and support one another as we navigate the experiences of organizing, facilitating and coordinating local BIPOC UU groups.
Our intentions are:

1. Connection and Community: The DRUUMM Peer Network serves as a platform for organizers to connect and build a sense of community. It provides a space where participants can find support, understanding, and solidarity from peers who share similar experiences and challenges.
   
   
2. Peer Support and Resource Sharing: The network facilitates peer support by offering opportunities for members to share their experiences, challenges, and triumphs. It serves as a platform for organizers to seek guidance, advice, and insights from others who have navigated similar paths. Participants can also share resources, best practices, and tools that have been helpful in their faith leadership journeys.
   
   
3. Professional Development and Growth: The Peer Network meetings provide a space for professional development and growth among DRUUMM organizers. Through discussions, workshops, and presentations, members can learn from one another, enhance their skills, and explore new opportunities within the UU context.
   
   
4. Collaboration and Partnership: The network fosters collaboration and partnership among its participants. It encourages organizers to form alliances, work together on common goals or projects, and leverage their collective strengths and expertise to create positive change within Unitarian Universalism.
   
   
5. Amplifying Voices and Advocacy: The Peer Network serves as a platform to amplify the voices of BIPOC UUs and inform the DRUUMM Steering Committee and staff of their needs, concerns, and aspirations within the broader UU community. It empowers individuals to share their perspectives, challenge systemic barriers, and work towards creating a more inclusive and equitable Unitarian Universalism.
