SJI has several ongoing program areas:
The Social Justice Initiative develops educational exhibits and programming that explore social justice themes, and has several resources we offer for the UIC community. The Pipeline to Justice (P2J) award is designed to support community organizers and activists in completing undergraduate degrees at UIC. The Social Justice Minor is a rigorous interdisciplinary program housed in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Gender and Women’s Studies Program. The Justice Lens Film Series is an annual public film and discussion series focused on national and local social justice issues. Previously, the Nesbitt, Carrasco, Unzueta Scholarship in Border Crossing Activism was an award program of the Social Justice Initiative that honored UIC undergraduate students whose scholarship and community engagement demonstrate a commitment to social justice activism across national boundaries and identities.
