What People Are Saying About Us

Picture
Wow! One of the best trainings I have ever taken. It provided so much information in a way that is digestible.  You cannot go wrong with choosing A2A for anything related to expanding diversity, equity, and inclusion in your organization. -Stephanie Lopez Lozano Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara

This training was more useful than any other professional training I've ever had, on any subject...This type of training should be implemented at all organizations, period. -Cory Schierberl, Professor, International Sports Science Association, College of Exercise Science

This training was exceptional. I consider myself well informed, and very open to and aware of the biases in our systems. This training poked me in ways that I found uncomfortable - in exactly the right way.  It exceeded my expectations. -Sarah Sinclair, Author
Santa Barbara Independent


As someone whose antiracist learning and accomplice experience is already at a high level, I was glad that this training was being offered at my organization, but I didn't expect to get all that much out of it personally. I have never been happier to be wrong--the way the training was structured and built on itself from one module to the next, the depth of the learning offered, and the clear, nuanced, complete resources backing up the lessons made this the best DEI training I have ever participated in. I'm so glad I had this opportunity--for myself, for my organization, and for my community.
- Mel Dase, Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara

This is a powerful, important, and challenging journey for us all as educators and as human beings. Your course helped me with my personal growth as an individual, a parent, and spouse beyond the world of education. - Rusty Ito, Assistant Principal, Montecito Union School


Thank you for creating the best training I've had in my 21 years in education. - Amy Welbourn, Elementary School Teacher, Goleta Union School District

I have to specifically commend Dr. Newman and Dr. Hutchinson for their availability to answer questions, their  impeccable follow through, and their understanding of how schools work. Being educators themselves, they  understand that teachers want to learn and grow, and they have a lot on their plates on a daily basis, especially  now with COVID-19 impacting our instructional approach. Through it all, Dr. Hutchinson and Dr. Newman were  positive, encouraging, and honest with us as we completed the training. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them  both again the future.  -Demian Barnett, Superintendent/Principal, Peabody Charter School

Carrie and Donte are experts at communicating and teaching about more nuanced and sensitive
topics. They do not shy away from identifying structural racism and white supremacy, and they
also create a safe space for people to make mistakes, learn, and grow. - Ursula Chan, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Coordinator, Laguna Blanca School


This is an antiracist educational training with a focus on identifying the systemic structures that support racism in our country and defining how implicit racism, apparent in us all, can be countered with intentional action. - Etta Murray, Elementary School Teacher, Goleta Union School District

An eye-opening and sometimes challenging introduction to the concept of pervasive, systemic, and implicit racism in America, with some practical advice on how to combat it. -Matt Kettmann, Senior Editor, Santa Barbara Independent

A detailed and in-depth look at topics surrounding systemic racism and anti-racism. -Charles Burggraf, Staff Member, Santa Barbara Museum of Art
