Advocacy

 
Our program is dedicated to supporting carceral-impacted students on campus by fostering collaboration with various departments and advocating for equitable opportunities. One of our key priorities is eliminating background checks for students seeking various on-campus employment, ensuring a fair and inclusive hiring process for all that follows "The Fair Chance Hiring Act."

We also work closely with campus departments to promote positive social change and build strong connections with local policymakers. Through these efforts, we strive to create meaningful transformations that enhance the experiences and opportunities available to carceral-impacted students at College of the Desert.

Together, we can make a lasting difference and ensure every student has the support they need to succeed.
