Vaccine Influencer Training
In our efforts to get everyone in our college communities vaccinated, it is important that we recognize and understand the vaccine hesitancy that may be present in our diverse student population so that we can better address specific concerns, fears, and apprehensions. As students have questions about this issue, it is important that we provide our faculty, staff, and administrators with resources to help provide information and address concerns in an inclusive and equity-minded way. That’s why we have partnered with the Sacramento County COVID-19 Collaborative and the Sierra Health Foundation to provide a COVID-19 Vaccine Education and Training webinar exclusively for Los Rios faculty, staff, and administrators. The webinar is part of a series of “Vaccine Influencer” trainings our partners are leading in and around our communities. Or Telephone: (669) 900-6833 Webinar ID: 999 9721 1253 |

WEAVE Confidential Advocate
Dominique Rosete is the Los Rios WEAVE Confidential Advocate, whose role is to support students and staff at all four Los Rios campuses who have experienced domestic violence, sexual assault/harassment, or sex trafficking. This semester Dominique will be available for in-person meetings (by appointment only) at these dates and times: - SCC – Mondays from 9am-4:30pm in the Campus Interventions Office
- FLC – Tuesdays from 9am-4:30pm in the Center for Excellence
- ARC – Wednesdays from 9am-2:30pm in the Learning Resource Center
- CRC – Thursdays from 9am-4:30pm in the College Center
Students are encouraged to email Dominique at WEAVE@losrios.edu to schedule a meeting.
In addition to support services, Dominique is also available for presentations. The goal of these presentations is to engage students in trauma-informed conversations about topics such as domestic violence, sexual assault and consent, healthy vs. unhealthy relationships, and bystander intervention. During these educational presentations, students will also learn about the role and services of the WEAVE Advocate and what resources they can be connected to.
If you are interested in a presentation, please feel free to email Dominique with your request (topics, class time/duration, etc.) at WEAVE@losrios.edu. |

Facilitators are Pamela Chao, Jennifer Laflam, and guests.
The institute meets eight Thursday afternoons, 2:00pm - 5:00pm, beginning September 23. Register by Friday, September 17 at 11:59 pm at forms.gle/9ydfURNYwyHDeMBVA
