Disability Zone

Explore the intersections of disability status and justice through the critical analysis of language and policy, the works of disability justice activists, and group discussion. During this three-hour session, NYU community members reflect on their practices, gain the tools to actively practice solidarity with people with disabilities, and learn how to create more accessible environments for these same people.

Justice Zone

Develop an understanding of frequently used concepts—such as diversity, equity, and social justice—through the lens of race and racism. Throughout this two-hour session, participants reflect on their own identities and challenge their daily practices to begin a journey toward critical consciousness.

Safe Zone

This three-hour session provides foundational knowledge about LGBTQ+ communities, an understanding of some of the issues these communities face, and an awareness of various LGBTQ+ resources at NYU and beyond.

UndocuZone (formerly DREAM Zone)

This program introduces NYU community members to issues and challenges the undocumented community faces by utilizing global concepts and terminology, historical information, and policies and procedures that focus on individuals in this community.
