Strategic Partnerships

Intercultural Competency & Cultural Humility Development

Engage constituents and stakeholders in sustained culturally responsive curricular and extra-curricular programming, training, intergroup dialogue, and community service that cultivate capacities for effective cross-cultural communication and mutually affirming interpersonal relationships.
