Strengthening Campus Communities Through the Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation Framework cover

This edited volume encourages and informs the transformational steps needed for a better, more equitable future for all. These efforts, being led by higher education institutions, complement existing diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives and are part of the W. K. Kellogg Foundation’s national Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation™ effort.

The American Association of Colleges and Universities is partnering with higher education institutions to develop TRHT Campus Centers dedicated to erasing barriers to equal treatment and opportunity on campuses, in communities, and throughout the nation at large. The narratives in this book include case study essay contributions from current TRHT Campus Centers that offer practical examples for translating the TRHT Framework into replicable strategies to inform constructive change. Contributions are drawn from a breadth of institution types including community colleges, liberal arts colleges, HBCUs, minority-serving institutions, faith-based institutions, regional comprehensives, and large research universities.

Timely, powerful, and well-supplied with practical strategies, this book is an ideal guide for any college educator interested in diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging; student leadership development; and models for institutional, structural, and systemic change.

"Strengthening Campus Communities Through the Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation Framework is an invaluable resource for those seeking to promote racial justice and racial healing, both on campuses and in communities. The activities described in this book can inspire and guide those leading change. AAC&U deserves kudos for this project."

Michael Wenger, Senior Fellow, American Association of Colleges & Universities

“TRHT Campus Centers draw on the catalytic power of young, committed leaders who know that racial equity and justice will evolve through human connection, visionary courage and people of diverse backgrounds working side-by-side in common cause. Aided by professors and mentors, students across the country demonstrate that racial healing advances knowledge and empathy. The stories shared in this volume reaffirm my confidence that the next generation is picking up the baton of racial equity work with extraordinarily capable hands.”

La June Montgomery Tabron, President & CEO, W. K. Kellogg Foundation

“This volume gives readers hope. All across the US, young people and educators are building a movement for racial healing to transform our nation. The stories told here offer practical insights and inspiration for us all to follow.”
