Title: Building Vibrant, Diverse, Civically Engaged, and Equitable Communities
Date: February 18, 2025
Time: 8:00 a.m.–2:00 p.m.
Description:
Join us for a highly interactive and approach-driven institute dedicated to exploring the components of a diverse, equitable, and vibrant community. Guided by ATD’s Equity Toolkit and the Community Vibrancy Framework, the institute will focus on actionable steps community college leaders can take to design an equity-centered institution where diverse students thrive socially and economically.
Institutional and societal inequities serve as barriers for marginalized and minoritized students who aim to achieve social mobility. During the institute, attendees will learn strategies to foster deeper connections with their community, create mutually beneficial equity-focused partnerships, and prioritize the needs of minoritized and marginalized students. Additionally, attendees will gain valuable insights and practical tools to assist their students to become civically engaged and advocate for the supports they need to be successful.
This institute will highlight community programs, and partnerships that can serve colleges where programs supporting diverse students have been eliminated.
Don't miss this opportunity to connect with like-minded leaders, share ideas, and collaborate on building an equitable and inclusive future for your students and communities.
Through participation in the institute, participants will accomplish the following:
Breakfast and lunch are included. Registrants receive a 15% discount when attending both DREAM 2025 and the ATD Equity Institute. See the fees below.
Who Should Attend?
We strongly encourage teams of two to five individuals per institution to maximize the value of the working times and activities built into the institute. Teams should be composed of individuals empowered and/or eager to pursue equity on their campus and may include senior administrators, diversity officers, student affairs officers, faculty leaders, institutional research leaders, and individuals with diverse perspectives and experiences.
