by Noah Lindenberg, Lucy Hirsch, Willow Newcomb, Fiona Joseph, and Madeline Bailer, for the Fall 2020 Symposium on Community Engaged Scholarship (HSSJ 1177)
This presentation was selected as a Fall 2020 Nashman Center Exemplar.
As students at GW who hope to live in DC post-grad, we must be committed to addressing the inequality and gentrification we are contributing to. We were thankful for the opportunity to partner with CNHED to promote awareness about this issue.
This project was part of Dr. Gretchen Van der Veer’s HSSJ 1177: Organizing Social Justice and Human Services. Students in this course learn theories of community organizing and social justice while engaging in service-learning with DC-based advocacy and action organizations.
Please be sure to cast your vote for the Symposium for Community Engaged Scholarship Audience Choice Award. You are welcome to post comments and questions below.
I really enjoyed viewing your work and hearing about your service, I am curious to know if any of you are planning on continuing to serve with CNHED or if your work has inspired you to think differently about service. Congratulations on your exemplar award as well!
What a terrific project! Did you find the process of distilling and organizing information for the info sheets similar to writing a research paper? The presentation was well organized and clearly presented. Congratulations on being named an exemplar! Great work!
