ADVOCACY INITIATIVE
At CAACURH, we are always trying to improve and prioritize people's experiences. By creating the DSJI committee, we hope to bring advocacy, diversity, and social justice to our spaces so you can take these initiatives back to your campuses.
Below are some definitions and different tabs with different initiatives that we focused on. We understand and notice that there are several other advocacy projects and initiatives within our society and the world. We wanted to pinpoint the major topics that are seen day today and the pressing matters today that still go unnoticed.
