We know that racism causes environmental stress and imposes academic barriers on students in historically marginalized communities. Our shift towards an anti-racist organization and classrooms will guide our students to make connections between the outside world and the classroom. KIPPsters will learn to:

• Examine what it means to be well-resourced people and how to use their resources to change their own lives and the world around them;
• Address community prejudice, discrimination, and racism, specifically anti-Blackness;
• Build an understanding of cross-cultural allyship;
• Develop global skills & competencies: communication and collaboration, creativity and critical thinking, intercultural competence and citizenship, emotional self-regulation and well-being, and digital literacy.
