Welcome! The mission of the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee is to foster an educational environment where diverse viewpoints and backgrounds are welcomed and respected. We want Harvey Milk staff, students, and their families to feel comfortable and empowered to discuss diversity and inclusion.
We strive to inspire and maintain a growth mindset as we work toward a world free of racism, classism, sexism, heterosexism, ableism, ageism, Islamophobia, and transphobia.

Decolonize The Heart and Mind Workshop
The systems that this country were built upon put us in boxes and define what success or happiness look like FOR us. This workshop is an opportunity to look inside ourselves and create our own definitions.
What if, instead of being allies who are against racism from afar, we made the decision to be accomplices–actively participating in the dismantling of these systems of oppression that do not serve any of us?
As a Civil Rights Academy, our children are learning how to be actively anti-racist. This workshop gives parents and caregivers a chance to compliment those efforts in the classroom and learn to better-support our entire HMCRA community.
We’d love to have you join us.
These online classes will be from 5-7pm on Tuesdays 11/10, 11/17, and 12/1
Class size is limited so please RSVP early to guarantee your spot. Questions? Be in touch at diversity@harveymilk.com
