Newest Initiative--UBUNTU HOUSE
Attend our Racial Trauma Skills Training
A Path Toward Racial Healing
Goal:
“Help Us Expand Our Base By Feb. 28, 2023!”
During the next three years (by end of 2024), our goal is to find meeting space and ultimately obtain a property with offices, meeting space for one-day visits, meetings, and workshops and overnight accommodations (typically 1-3 night stays). As we build our brand, we will provide virtual and limited in-person spaces for conversation, learning, and understanding about racial trauma, skill-building to overcome generational racial trauma, and healing techniques for healing, wholeness, and thriving.
During this first year of foundation building, our goal is to raise $25,000 by the end of 2022. Please help us reach this goal by making a donation.
If you don’t ever walk through trouble, or confront a risk, or reach beyond your comfort zone, you will never meet the rest of yourself.”

Ubuntu House is the newest initiative under the AALR umbrella. From the Bantu language, Ubuntu means“ I am because we are.” The dream child and passion project of AALR president, Amania Drane, Ubuntu House seeks to provide a restorative retreat space where people can gather to experience healing from racial trauma.
