“Danny's range of expertise allowed her to connect with our Leadership Institute participants in a way that helped them open the door to "freedom dreaming." Danny's authenticity made a deep impression on the participants as well. She kept it real, which gave our participants the freedom to be real too. I look forward to having Danny speak to our participants again.”

Isai Garcia, December 2021, Leadership Institute Programs Coordinator, Daily Acts

“Cindy and Danny created a safe and informative space on Zoom for Sonoma County's Spanish-speaking community. They gave participants time and space to take in the information and have authentic conversations with each other. We need more opportunities like this to engage all communities on important issues.”

“Educational, inspiring, and interesting. That’s what healing justice is; all the things public school is afraid to teach you, but all the things that need be taught. “

“It first helped us learn how to help ourselves and then taught us how to help others. It was amazing to learn from people with such diverse skill sets, points of view, and life experience.”

“This program has not only given me a voice, a family and a passion for change but the courage to put myself into accountability and help others do this as well. Throughout these eight weeks not only have I been able to create such strong bonds with my fellow peers, but meet wonderful mentors with very strong personalities and ideas!”

“I am very grateful and honored to have been a part of this workshop/training. This is an experience I will never forget. I met new friends and learned things I never thought i’d learn. Everyone in the workshop was already so educated and after the 8 weeks I felt even more educated than I already was about all new amazing things. I thank all the speakers and leaders for their time and efforts with such amazing students.”

“On the Margins brings a critical and unique skill set to the conversations of race, equity and justice, their team's experience integrates body awareness, emotional awareness, and offers practices to help us get out of our head and into the deeper somatic work of transformational personal growth.”

“Dr. Domínguez and her team provide a unique training that is as academic as it is emotional. As clinical therapists, they create a training where you are safe and supported so that you can examine racism from both a structural and personal perspective.”

“I really appreciated Dr. Dominguez's and her team's deep experience in therapeutic techniques and their trauma-informed approach. It felt really safe to express some of my deepest feelings of shame and guilt that come up in anti-racism work. I felt held and supported in my grief AND I felt I could also examine my own white fragility. Thank you!”

Amy Exelby, Associate Director, Daily Acts, July 2021

“On the Margins brought an amazing workshop. Filled with great educational pieces, vibrant energy that kept me engaged, made me deep in thought and helped me with processing my feelings. I hope to take another workshop in the future.”

“Dr. Dominguez is an amazing presenter! The presentation was very informative, thought provoking, and engaging.”

Lupe Navarro, Executive Director, Latino Service Providers, April, 2021

“These conversations have been so mind-expanding and inspiring. It is so helpful to be able to explore my implicit racial bias and blind spots in such a safe space. The permission to be authentic will continue to influence my work moving forward, and I have benefitted from self-reflection upon our meetings for weeks afterwards. This has been a golden opportunity and I am so grateful!”

Jennifer Silverstein, LCSW, Infant-Family Mental Health Specialist, Mother’s Care, April , 2021

“Danny is a passionate speaker- she speaks from a grass-roots perspective yet positions herself high with intellect, poise, and expertise. The presentation itself is one of a kind- As a POC, I celebrate the message and intent- however, I also understand that it isn't received the same by all. With that in mind, the presentation eases into a hard conversation and sets the table for appropriate levels of reflection, realization, and motivation to make change.“
