The co-leaders obtained a grant that "seeks support for a workshop by faculty of African descent to examine dreams, dreaming, and dream world as pedagogical spaces where healing can be taught and learned; that is, where holistic healing is not a byproduct of teaching and learning (a “benefits package”), or episodes of respite (as if catching one’s breath), but a central purpose. ”
