While we appreciate differences, we also attempt to look at the ways in which we are situated differently and the ways in which everyone possesses power but not everyone possesses it equally. This is addressed in our support of families as well as in training. Our belief that social justice is about rectifying fractures and ills that may be attributable to the inequitable distribution of power. We recognize that some voices are louder than others, that some people have greater access to power than others. We spend time in training discussing how to manage these inequities and our resolve to alter that.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> <\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div      class=\"vc_row wpb_row section vc_row-fluid vc_inner \" style=' text-align:left;'><div class=\" full_section_inner clearfix\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t<div class=\"vc_empty_space\"  style=\"height: 60px\" ><span\n\t\t\tclass=\"vc_empty_space_inner\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"empty_space_image\"  ><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div   data-q_id=\"#spanish-training-track\"    class=\"vc_row wpb_row section vc_row-fluid  vc_custom_1605574296698 grid_section\" style='background-color:#ffffff; border-bottom: 1px solid #ffffff; text-align:left;'><div class=\" section_inner clearfix\"><div class='section_inner_margin clearfix'><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div      class=\"vc_row wpb_row section vc_row-fluid vc_inner  desktop-only\" style=' text-align:left;'><div class=\" full_section_inner clearfix\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h3><\/h3>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> \n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2>Spanish Training Track<\/h2>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> <div class=\"separator  small left  \" style=\"margin-top: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;background-color: #3184ec;height: 4px;width: 61px;\"><\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>Cultural and language diversity are of the utmost importance to the FSS team The Spanish Track was created for trainees interested in receiving training, didactics and supervision in Spanish.
