Dr. Kimberly P. Johnson 

Using B.R.I.D.G.E.S. to Connect our Communities –
One Advocate at a Time!

This interactive and engaging session will allow participants to unpack their own ideas and visions regarding creating a caring and educated setting. We may see the world through various lenses, but it does not mean we can’t work cohesively to create the change we want to see! As directors, supervisors, managers, and other leadership members, we must make sure that we lead alongside our team. It is this hands-on effort that will elevate our organizations.

Dr. Kimberly P. Johnson will use her expertise in Leadership, Teaching, and Diversity to help participants recognize that they have what it takes to bring everyone together in a safe and productive manner. She will provide participants with practical tools to help make a difference in how they interact and engage with others. As advocates, we must continue to fill in gaps and build bridges to help us all learn to connect and love more. The work that we do is not just about being educated. It is also about being caring, understanding, and tolerant of human beings! Come listen, come learn, come laugh and let’s BUILD THE BRIDGES TO SUCCESS!!
