Working Group Purpose Statement:
Review and enhance processes that support faculty, staff and students as they navigate the JMU community with regard to incidents of bias, discrimination and harassment. Focus on how to build knowledge and awareness of those resources. Training for key University community leaders and beyond that will enhance the overall safety, protection and well-being of people of color at JMU. We want to research and address public safety interactions especially with black people but including all other racial groups as well.
