About Social Justice Education

Social justice education is a priority at NIU. The training and resources we provide to the NIU community help create an environment that celebrates diversity and promotes an equitable, inclusive, and accessible community.

As part of Academic Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, the services we provide are part of campuswide efforts to ensure an equitable experience for all current and prospective students, faculty and staff.

We're dedicated to:

• Creating opportunities for faculty, staff and students to build their cultural competence.
• Empowering student activists.
• Raising awareness of past and current issues and promoting productive dialogue.
• Providing access to tools and resources that inform diversity, equity, and inclusion work.
