What does it mean to be an ally? How can you shift from focusing on intent to focusing on impact? Join us to learn how you can individually and collectively make a positive difference in your community, workplace, campus, educational system, or any other type of group by recognizing and responding to barriers.

Join us for Social Justice Cinema! We will be watching Shirley in honor of Shirley Chisholm. Don't miss this inspiring film about a trailblazer in American history!

This interactive workshop explores Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy (CSP) as a tool for fostering belonging, engagement, and success for BIPOC and other minoritzed students.
