We support organizations’ journey in educating and implementing strategic inclusion and equity for minoritized communities while intentionally building retreat spaces for BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ people.
Speak to the teamRequest a quoteChosen Collective Consulting believes in the ability for BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ people to thrive, lead, advocate and thoughtfully engage in equitable, just, inclusive and supportive environments. This will aid in the sustainable growth of organizations and most importantly, a better quality of life and lived reality for historically oppressed and disinvested communities and their future generations.
We believe in a world where BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ folks no longer have to "rest" or "retreat" from oppressive systems and cultures and that organizational leaders lead with empathy, accountability, and action . The work of equity and inclusion takes us all.

“Nowhere like Limón, Limónense is the land of freedom” are the lyrics written by famed calypso artist Herbert Linky Glinton. The Limón province, located on the Caribbean/Atlantic coast is rich in Black & Indigenous culture and histories of community organizing and thriving. It is here, where Marcus Garvey dreamed and initiated his plan for the “Black Star Line” – his response to exploited Black labor and discrimination in the Western Hemisphere. This organizing work was done in the backdrop of beautiful beaches, rich soil, and lush green landscapes. Limón is beauty and magic.
We will take tours that center Black Limón history and the caretakers of the land, the Bribri people, lay on Black sand beaches, swim under waterfalls, indulge in self-care spaces, and be nourished by community and fresh foods.
