The committee consists of students, faculty, staff, and administrators who are committed to creating a safe
and welcoming environment for all members of our CCS community. We have all received specialized training
from the national Stop the Hate training program and bring the knowledge and skills we learned from this
training to CCS. We are available to conduct trainings throughout CCS on issues of hate, combating it, and
documenting it. See the training component of this web site for more information.
