Living Justice Practicum
“Living Justice: An Anti-Racist practicum.” This project, funded by a grant from the Oreon E. Scott Foundation with support from the Disciples Divinity House of the University of Chicago, seeks to equip and resource transformative leaders and communities. As a justice learning lab, it aims to develop resources to critically advance the anti-racist/pro-reconciling imperatives of the Christian Church, and connect diverse scholar-practitioner-activist leaders to teach other lay persons, clergy, scholars, and institutional leaders how to take next steps to institutionalize justice.
