Program Description

Event Details

Student members of the Bell Middle Social Justice Project develop their knowledge and skills around identity, civic engagement and leadership and carry out a service learning project to be part of the solution to problems that they identify. Last year, they chose the theme of being an "upstander" to discrimination based on race, gender and sexual orientation and created and performed a play for students, family and community members. This year, we participated in a human rights institute with the American Friends Service Committee and produced the Youth Justice Squad comic book with Little Fish Comic Book Studio featuring the "Battle at the Border", applying lessons learned about people working together to promote humane treatment for those in need.
