Empowerment Retreat Series
Launched in fall 2019, the Empowerment Retreat Series are identity-based student retreats that focuses on sense of belonging, building community with fellow students, and empowering students through identity development. We recognize the intersectionality of identities and encourage students to attend any and all retreats that resonate with them.
BIPOC Retreat

The two day event will consist of activities and conversations centered around the empowerment of Cal Lutheran’s BIPOC students with an emphasis on uplifting aspects of their identities.
