Dara's Values:
Authenticity, Compassion, Empathy, Wisdom, Growth, and Possibility
Dara Crawley specializes in culturally responsive and aware project development and education informed by her background in mental health, gender, sexuality, and racial equity work. This work relies on the fact that projects need to understand the environments they exist in and how to be as effective as possible with the right talent and application of it. That is a strong passion of hers in many spheres and something she has worked to bring to creative project teams, mental health practices, and support group leadership. Her approach is always resilience orientated, strengths focused, and forward looking
Culturally responsive project development involves creating and supporting projects that are sensitive to and inclusive of the cultural contexts and needs of diverse populations. This approach recognizes the importance of understanding and respecting the cultural backgrounds, values, and practices of the people involved in or affected by a project. This approach has helped her build welcoming communities for all shareholders and enhance community well-being.
