Social Justice Learning Communities: Lessons from Equity Leaders

Given the impacts of the pandemic, it is essential to provide effective supports and counseling to students—especially students of color and low income students. Equity-grounded counseling has taken on deeper meaning in the current context of the national reckoning on racial justice. Representatives of equity-grounded learning communities are taking advantage of the current moment to meet students where they are—and to center needed support and services to help them stay on their path. Tapping the experiences of equity leaders, we will hear about equitable counseling strategies and practices that have proven successful with students of color. The discussion will include suggestions on lessons and practices that can inform the work of structural change and be applied at scale on campuses. Register for the series.
