The Advocacy and Social Justice Specialist Technical Diploma program equips learners with the knowledge and skills to advocate for justice within communities. Coursework covers community organizing, advocacy, and activism from sociological and legal perspectives.
Students learn about root causes of social issues like inequity, historical trauma, homelessness, domestic violence, human trafficking, and substance use disorders. They explore strategies for addressing these issues at the community level and study the role of government and non-governmental organizations in promoting social justice. The program also examines the impact of public policy on communities and highlights methods for promoting equity and inclusion with culturally competent responses.
This program prepares learners to be effective advocates for change within their communities, enabling them to make a positive impact on society.
