Participants will be educated in how to identify signs and symptoms of burnout and will leave the workshop with techniques that can be used year-round to manage stress, reduce fatigue and improve educational engagement. 

This event is for ALL LGBTQIA+ students, faculty, staff and allies. This event is conducted with the intent to be a safe space for these groups. Any form of homophobia or hate speech will not be tolerated and will result in removal of offending parties.
