Our Guiding Principles
Creative Labs builds on your HCE Certification foundation through three progressive phases of learning: Deepening Awareness, Designing New Strategies, and Piloting and Reimagining. Each phase integrates the five CARMA principles to transform your theoretical knowledge into dynamic, real-world healing-centered practices.
Deepen your knowledge of social toxins, culture, and identity with a focus on their role in healing-centered practice. Learn to weave diverse intersections of your community into your work, creating culturally relevant strategies that celebrate individual and collective identities. As you progress, you'll develop the courage to lead healing practices that encourage new ways of thinking and acting about race, culture, and identity in your community.
AGENCY
Conduct a reflective inventory of existing healing-aligned practices and use them as models for your implementation journey. Define clear commitments for ongoing action that orient your practice toward your HCE goals. Ultimately, develop strategies that nurture and uplift agency in youth and community members, allowing them to play an active role in their own healing experience.
RELATIONSHIPS
Apply new HCE tools to build and strengthen transformative relationships in your institutions, fostering trust, vulnerability, and authenticity. Learn inclusive design approaches that ensure diverse voices are heard and valued throughout creation, testing, and reflection. Create reciprocal channels of collaboration and feedback with youth and community built on trust, respect, and a shared vision for healing.
Meaning
Apply CARMA to deeply understand and define challenges facing your community, ensuring your strategies resonate with their needs and aspirations. Define clear intentions for the healing-centered change you wish to implement, using them to guide actionable steps. Engage in cycles of reflective feedback to share successes, barriers, and opportunities while drawing meaningful insights about progress toward your HCE goals.
Aspiration
Establish team practices and rituals to cultivate hope, imagination, and innovation alongside your HCE implementation work. Align your intentions for change with healing-centered aspirations and create value-informed goals that fuse HCE with your practice context. Expand and adapt your goals driven by new experiences, leveraging HCE tools to overcome barriers on your implementation journey.
