Our programs change beliefs and attitudes
of our program participants.
Participants learn new ways of viewing racial problems that face our nation. They come to see their personal challenges regarding prejudice and racism as directly related to their own personal power and well-being. This creates a more lasting motivation to work for change, on both personal and institutional levels.
Our programs are able to achieve such far-reaching results due to the carefully constructed program content and a variety of learning methodologies:
Lectures
Visual PowerPoint
presentations of program content
Videos
Small-group discussions
Large-group feedback
Listening techniques
Resource reading materials
Drawing
Music
Guided imagery
Story telling
Strategic planning
Brainstorming
Testimonial
Tony Franklin, Associate Dean of Students of Knox College: Healing Our Nation programs provided me with life-changing insights and understanding about my personal biases, prejudices, emotions and feelings as they relate to discrimination and racism . . .. The curriculum empowers the non-dominant culture while creating an empathic and caring paradigm shift for the dominant culture. A delicate blend of audiovisuals, literature, facilitated exercises and discussion groups appeal to both auditory and visual learners.
