The Practice Space

The Practice Space is a San Francisco Bay Area non-profit organization that seeks to build confidence and community through leadership and communication skill development to advance inclusion, create inclusive learning environments, and elevate systemically marginalized voices. Through this mission, The Practice Space envisions a world where diverse communities of youth and adults feel free, cared for, and capable of manifesting their voices in the world. Central to this work is an in-depth coaching and curriculum approach that helps people develop their capacity to speak in a clear, engaging way that represents who they are and strengthen their ability to listen to others. Over time, the goal is to diversify who feels capable of speaking and actively disrupt inequities in terms of who gets to express their viewpoints in the world.
