  • About Us

    Utilizing a lens of anti-oppression, Praxis redefines group and organizational cultures so that people feel empowered to bring their full selves to the table.

    As our name, “Praxis,” suggests, we are invested in moving beyond the theory of tolerance and into the practices of reflection, affirmation, and equity. We know that groups are more effective when their members feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow. We believe that people with the most marginalized identities (who experience the greatest number of barriers to participation) must be included in decision-making processes and on leadership teams.

    Praxis is committed to providing you with tools to implement immediate change, as well as support to identify and execute the long-term strategies that lead to true organizational transformation. 

    Using an intersectional lens, our work supports teams of any size to work more effectively by creating space for dialogue and growth. Through facilitated conversations, workshops and tailored interventions, we help to foster environments that are inclusive of all employees, clients, patients, students, and community members. When people feel welcome to bring their true selves to the table, teams are more productive, innovation is encouraged, and businesses thrive.

    We specialize in supporting teams who are interested in learning how to create spaces that:

    • welcome and affirm LGBTQ2IA+ people
    • are dedicated to anti-oppression 
    • value feedback and collaboration
    • truly reflect the values of their organization

    We are experienced working across myriad sectors, including corporate, nonprofit, medical, K-12 and higher education, and community-based organizations.
