Throughout our twenty-seven years at UC, RAPP's main program has been our academic year-long program. In budgetary lean times, it's the core we keep alive. It's arguably the origin of intergroup dialogue. It's dynamic and ever evolving, ever improving.
It's also inaccessible to lots of students.
Under semesters, this is even more so an issue. Previously, we were relatively easily able to accommodate folks who co-oped or interned out-of-town for a quarter. Now that they're out for half the year instead of a third, we're much less able to do this.
This year, we moved back to having one group of 35 that meets throughout the year instead of two groups (which RAPP had for the previous four years and a total of six of our twenty-six years). This means there's only one night for meetings: Wednesday.
So, if you co-op/intern out of the city and/or are busy on Wednesdays, the nine-month program is not an option for you.
Don't worry - because Accelerating Racial Justice hopefully IS an option for you!
Accelerating Racial Justice is RAPP's newer five-day, four-night intensive. For a week, you'll build community while enhancing your knowledge and skills around racial justice and inclusive leadership.
The intensive runs Monday, August 12th to Friday, August 16th. Transportation to and from the retreat as well as meals, lodging, and supplies are provided at no charge to participants. The only cost to you is your time!
Apply now for Accelerating Racial Justice! Applications are due by 5PM on Friday, May 3rd!
