SAIC has partnered with The Chicago Freedom School (CFS) to offer diversity training throughout the semester. CFS’s mission is to create new generations of critical and independent thinking young people who use their unique experiences and power to create a just world.

In “Recognizing Identity, Power, and Oppression,” participants will reflect on their own identity and how their identities intersect with systems of power and oppression. Together, participants will develop practices to name, interrupt and transform oppression in communities, workplaces, schools, and day to day interactions.

Sessions will be offered on the dates below. Please let us know of any dietary restrictions or accommodations you may need. We will send you a reminder a week before the training, but please let us know if your plans change and you are unable to attend.
