The University of Maryland School of Social Work's Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (ODEI) J.E.D.I. Is Social Work Initiative is kicking off the new year with January Is J.E.D.I. Month!
This January, we invite all students, staff, and faculty to set a new year’s intention to advance Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion at the School of Social Work.
For the five weeks of January, keep an eye out for the weekly emails sent by ODEI focusing on how you can engage in the eight principles of the J.E.D.I. Is Social Work Initiative:
Week 1 (Jan. 3) – J.E.D.I. as a New Year Intention
Week 2 (Jan. 9) - Healing & Humanity
Week 3 (Jan. 17) - Community & Liberation
Week 4 (Jan. 23) - Equity & Access
Week 5 (Jan. 30) - Affirming & Belonging and Campaign Closing
