As Sonoma State University continues to address anti-racism, the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is working collaboratively across departments to provide programs and initiatives that help engage our students, staff, and faculty in dialogue about anti-racism. The aim is to help further the discussion and engagement in our community and beyond. This list is a work in progress and will be updated as new programs and initiatives are developed.
