E102: Kansas City Oasis & the Oasis Network w/ Niki Aktipis
Manage episode 303963235 series 2456946
Since 2014, Kansas City Oasis has provided a community for secular families, believing the human experience is better when shared. Our goal is to cultivate an environment where you will find new friends and a place to belong, regardless of your beliefs, gender identity or sexual orientation. Our Core Values define our community and help shape our interactions with each other, society, and the world: People are more important than beliefs, human hands solve human problems, reality is known through reason, meaning comes from making a difference, be accepting and being accepted.
Originally from Toledo, Ohio, Niki Aktipis now lives in Kansas City, Kansas with their guinea pigs, rabbits, leopard gecko, fish, and a rotational variety of foster pets. Currently, Niki is a Teach for America teacher at Wyandotte High School and the board president of Kansas City Oasis. They graduated from the University of Michigan in 2013 with a bachelor’s in Biopsychology and the University of Derby in 2015 with a masters in Conservation Biology. They are currently completing their master’s in Education from Fort Hays State University. Niki is an avid science enthusiast, environmentalist, social justice advocate, and a life-long secular humanist. They have been a part of the Oasis community since 2016 and are honored to support the continued growth of Kansas City Oasis.
Hosted by Eric Wells, the RfR Support Group Director and Sascha D’Souza, RfR OCE Regional Support Group Director
