Chapter Programs

American Conference on Diversity chapters throughout the state sponsor programs to meet the needs of their local communities. Program offerings are determined by the local chapter.

Programs

Interfaith Dialogues
An interactive dialogue that offers participants the opportunity to engage in thoughtful and honest conversation that explores how their different religions share tenets, as well as ways in which they uniquely express their faith traditions through worship, holidays, texts, and other practices.

School Swap
School Swap is an interactive curriculum where a group of students at your school can experience a day in the life of students from different area schools. Although high school students throughout the state may share many similarities, the experience of a high school student is often dependent on the size of the high school, the geographic location, socioeconomic make up, the student diversity, and the diversity of faculty and staff. The goal of School Swap is for students to build understanding for ones in different learning environments by realizing the similarities and differences of their high school experiences. Students will then be able to dialogue about why these differences exist and the importance of discussion on these differences in high schools.
