The Equity Caucus serves to improve graduate programs through conversations on topics regarding equity, diversity and inclusion. Through early engagement with these concepts, it is our hope that graduate students will become active participants in their own development and practice of advocating for equitable environments in both professional and personal practices.

As the education and psychology professions are centered around social justice, enhancing equity must be a part of every conversation. Additionally, we aim to assist future professionals in psychological and educational settings in building understanding, awareness, and capacity to advocate for marginalized youth and families in all contexts of this work. We are committed to engaging and elevating these competencies that will benefit every youth and family we will support throughout our careers.
