We Believe You is hosting the first General Body Meeting of the new Fall 2020 semester happening this Friday, September 11, 6:00-7:00pm est., via Webex! This event is open to all members of the UMBC community. 

All are welcome to attend as long as they respect survivors, their journeys, and value a survivor-supportive community at UMBC.

Join us as we review a brief history of the organization, introduce our 2020 e-board, and discuss upcoming events, collaborations, workshops, and ways that you can kick-start your involvement and become a student advocate/activist!

During our first GBM, attendees will have the opportunity to introduce themselves and participate in a get-to-know-you activity called "Piece Of Me". This activity will ask that participants share the following: 

• Name
• Pronouns (if applicable)
• Undergraduate/Graduate Status or Year
• Major(s)/Minor(s)/Certificate(s)
• Describe a color that matches how you feel about the new semester
• Find and present (or describe) any object (ex: book, picture, pin, shirt, music, etc.) that is of significance to you. Share why that object is important to you and to the creation of your personal identity (i.e. race, ethnicity, class, gender identity, ability/disability, religion/spirituality, nationality, etc.) that is particularly salient to you.

All General Body Meetings will be hosted through Webex. Joining instructions and links below:
