Our speakers are Emmi Heinonen from Muudi and Carina Nordman-Byskata. Emmi Heinonen is an expert on the mental health effects of racism and she will be speaking about antiracism, and Carina Nordman-Byskata is knowledgeable in neuropsychiatric diagnoses like autism and ADHD, and she will be talking about how to include students with these diagnoses on campus.
