Community Healing Hubs

The primary mission of the TRHT Campus Center Community Healing Hub (CHH) is to invite the Kansas State University community to engage in a transformative process intended to deepen human connections, encourage self-reflection, and challenge preconceived assumptions about those with different identities than our own. Grounded in the principles of equal value of all human beings, these spaces provide a structured and supportive environment for sharing personal narratives. The ultimate goal is to cultivate a sense of belonging and connection among diverse peers and colleagues.

The methodology for the CHH experience has been designed by Dr. Gail Christopher who outlined the protocols in her book, Rx Racial Healing: A Guide to Embracing Our Humanity. Read more about Community Healing Hubs (pdf)
