Our vision is to create a collective of Black student organizations from each campus for whom we will provide a foundation and voice. With this voice, we will combat systemic racism, provide opportunities for enrichment, and raise awareness about the importance of identity development. As we engage in culturally-responsive curriculum, attend Black events, and work on service projects, we hope to uplift San Diego's Black community creating lasting effects for generations to come.
