EXAMPLES SCENARIO FOR COMBINATION SRVICES 

You’ve recently hired someone who is disadvantaged by multiple oppressive social contracts. As a result, your new employee experiences high instability in their life, including lack of a reliable car. The impact of your equity hiring decision is that the rest of the team is affected by the new employee’s difficulties in getting to places and frequent changes in availability. You’d like to engage the employee and the rest of the team in a process that will increase connection, minimize the risk of re-traumatizing, and arrive at co-created solutions for reliability. You need an experienced guide to help you try on some language for the one on one, and a workshop on trauma-informed feedback for the whole team.
