Creciendo Juntos

Transformative Learning and Healing Through Culture.

About

La Cultura Cura is an intergenerational social support group that centers Latina women and Latinx femmes, 15 and older in connecting, healing, and learning together.

Our Goal

The goal of this group is to create a space for cultivating healing and joy through the power of cultural celebration, sisterhood, social solidarity and self actualization.

Our Vision

Our participants will engage in monthly activities that promote sisterhood, activism, culture, and solidarity. Through this learning and healing our participants will:

  • ​Give a voice to the cultural identity of our community.
  • Contribute to the integration, improvement, and wellbeing of the Latinx community in Virginia.
  • Find and strengthen their voices.

All while promoting respect, equality, social justice, cultural understanding, and hermandad.

La Cultura Cura is a collaborative group offering between Creciendo Juntos and The Women’s Initiative. 

On August 24th, Leslie Priscilla will join us to talk about Latinx Parenting and #EndtheChancla Culture. She will be highlighting this topic:

Social Solidarity: The importance of awareness and educating one’s self and others about societal issues that may not directly impact one’s self. Social solidarity is collectively caring and showing up for all of our communities. 

The following week, our group will meet to discuss and further engage with what was taught in the workshop.

This group is intended for Latina/Latinx identifying women and femmes 15 and older living within Charlottesville, VA/surrounding counties and areas. As this is an intergenerational group setting, we encourage you to invite you mother, grandmother, sister or daughter to participate with you!

El 24 de agosto, Leslie Priscilla se unirá a nosotros para compartir sus trabajo con Latinx Parenting y #EndChancla Culture. Ella estará destacando esta tema:

Solidaridad social: La importancia de la conciencia y la educación de uno mismo y de los demás sobre los problemas sociales que pueden no afectar directamente a uno mismo. La solidaridad social es cuidar y manifestarse colectivamente por todas nuestras comunidades.

La semana siguiente, nuestro grupo se reunirá para discutir y profundizar en lo que se enseñó en el taller.

Este grupo es para Latinas/Latinx que se identifican como mujeres y femmes mayores de 15 años. Como se trata de un entorno de grupo intergeneracional, ¡le animamos a que invite a su madre, hermana, abuela o hija a participar con usted!
