This event is the launch night for the upcoming five-week study series, looking into 400 years of history by reviewing the NY Times 1619 podcast series. 

A Little Bit About the 5-Week Series

In the weeks following members of the Black Network will facilitate weekly discussions of each week’s assigned episode.  The weekly discussions have limited spots to allow for more deeper conversations and insight sharing to occur more freely.  

It is highly recommended, but not required, to attend each week. However, participants will be expected to listen to the assigned podcast before joining that week’s discussion.

ORA Membership levels are based on the number of full-time equivalent staff in your company. This is the total number of full-time equivalent CLINICIANS doing work for your organization (don’t count admin staff). 1.0 FTE is a clinician who works 5 days per week (or bills 25-35 hours per week) for your organization, regardless of whether they are an employee or independent contractor. So someone who works 1 day per week (or bills 5-7 hours per week) would be 0.2 FTE, someone who works 3 days per week (or bills 15-21 hours per week) would be 0.6 FTE, etc. For example, if you have one full-time clinician and two half-time clinicians, your total FTE equals 2.0.
