Introducing: The ACE (antiracism community engagement) Grant
Check it out!
The ADEI leadership team recognizes the need to support and promote educational opportunities outside of the team’s current capacity. There are many programs, activities, and events that embody antiracism, diversity, equity, and inclusion (ADEI) that are of professional development value. Department budget constraints should not deprive those interested in furthering our mission and personal growth, so we have decided to introduce an ADEI grant program to help support and offset some of the financial costs associated with participating, attending, or creating ADEI programming.
The process is simple. Complete the attached form describing your funding needs and purpose at least three weeks before the due date of the activity. The ADEI leadership team will then review your request evaluating alignment with the four pillars (courageous conversations & bold action, thriving communities, student, transformations, and elevating CC’s profile)—using an antiracist lens, promoting mental wellness, and making things sustainable. You will be notified via email within one week about the status of your award. The grant will run until all funds have been exhausted, at which time we will notify the campus of the acceptance period ending. Our goal is to make the ACE grant an annual opportunity for staff, faculty, and students alike to get involved and stay engaged, furthering our commitment for as long as funds allow.
