Real Talk with CAPS
A Support Space for BIPOC Students at GWU
Real Talk with CAPS is a drop-in affinity space for Black Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) -identifying students to come together to: discuss and process experiences, receive support, and share information & resources. This space aims to create a supportive environment for participants to discuss issues unique to their experience at a predominantly white institution (PWI) such as: academic stress, relationships, race/ethnicity related stress, navigating cultural expectations and values, family dynamics and identity development. It also hoped that this space can focus on promoting resilience, self-care and community care, and that students who attend will find strength through solidarity and connection!
