Frequently Asked Questions
What will my students do at the Program?
-
- This one-day youth leadership forum takes participants through a process of awareness to action. Students will learn to recognize prejudice and intolerance, and to respect others. They will work closely with their peers from a wide range of ethnic, cultural and socio-economic backgrounds. Trained facilitators will guide the students through small group learning activities that explore personal experiences with discrimination and develop conflict resolution skills.
What is my role during the Program?
-
- We are pleased to offer two special opportunities for educators who attend the Diversity Dialogue Day. Educators in attendance will participate in a professional development session while students are in their breakout sessions. And, all educators will be added to the recipient list for VCIC’s “Building Inclusive Schools” Monthly Email Update.
What do I need to know about lunch and transportation?
-
- Each school will be responsible for their own transportation to Diversity Dialogue Day. Once you have registered, you will receive more information with directions to the University of Richmond and specific parking directions. All students and staff members attending Diversity Dialogue Day will be provided with lunch according to the dietary restrictions listed on their respective registration forms.
