LySaundra Campbell has led conversations and workshops on a number of topics including: domestic and sexual violence prevention, economic justice and policy, technology safety, restorative & transformative justice, wellness practices for activists and advocates, organizational development, and systems change advocacy.
As a culmination of her work in advocacy, and as a former piano and orchestra teacher, she developed “A Resilient Tune” workshop to drive the conversation on the history of Black music as it relates to social politics. Having access to music and other forms of creative art plays a significant role in building resilient communities, storytelling, and healing across the African Diaspora. This impacts mental health and gender-based violence, among other public health concerns.
