About Juntas
Juntas, or “together,” offers a brave space for Latinx women, femme, and nonbinary woman-identified students to share unique cultural experiences with other members of the UWM community. Latinx community and campus leaders will facilitate a cooperative learning experience for attendees through small discussion/”healing” circles. This program aims to help build relationships, share communal narratives, and develop tools for support, success, and self-care. “When one grows, we all grow. adj. /Spanish: together
