Santa Fe College Hosts Free Symposium for Justice-Impacted Individuals
October 21, 2024
Santa Fe College will host the 2024 Free to Learn Symposium at Blount Hall on Nov. 1, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. This one-day event, sponsored by the Free to Learn initiative, is open to both the college and the community. The theme for the symposium is "Opening Doors for the Justice-Impacted." Participants will have the opportunity attend numerous workshops exploring three specific tracks:
- Advocating for the Justice-Impacted
- Addressing the Well-Being of the Justice-Impacted
- Identifying Resources and Support for the Justice-Impacted
Participants will also collaborate with community members to identify obstacles and opportunities for opening doors for some of our most vulnerable students. Registration is free for this event.
Santa Fe College's Free to Learn initiative seeks to amplify the voices of currently and formerly incarcerated individuals, inform supportive measures for students with carceral experience, and address barriers to education and resources for successful reintegration.
