About us
The University of Southern California Race and Equity Center is the nexus of interdisciplinary scholarship, resources, programs, and initiatives designed to address issues of racial equity within the University, other institutions of higher education, and broader society. The Center is the home of the National Assessment of Collegiate Campus Climates (NACCC), a quantitative survey instrument designed to assess structural and experiential inequities resulting from oppressive and discriminatory campus environments. In addition, the USC Equity Institutes, an 8-week professional learning and organizational development program to assist colleges and universities to take action in achieving their racial equity goals. Finally, the Center recently launched PRISM, a new tech platform designed to enhance the experiences of racially diverse professionals in higher education. PRISM also offers colleges and universities an opportunity to identify and recruit highly-skilled talent as well as improve outcomes related to achieving racial equity in hiring. The Center’s strength resides in its interdisciplinarity, whereby USC faculty affiliates from across 19 academic schools conducting research, programs and initiatives, and other forms of public scholarship pertaining to race collaborate on the production of groundbreaking research in education, law and public policy, health and human services, the humanities, social sciences, and STEM fields. Affiliated faculty also collaborate on grant proposals, publications and research reports, the production of digital media, colloquia, and other signature Center events.

USC Race and Equity Center reposted this
As diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) faces unprecedented challenges, Shaun Harper stands at the forefront of its defense. "When people go into our democracy and do racist, homophobic things, colleges and universities are partially responsible for that," Harper said. "If we don't teach about race and racism and inequality, we leave them terribly underprepared to confront those issues and address them — and, in fact, they are complicit in perpetuating those issues." From advocating for underrepresented students to confronting organized attacks on DEI, Harper's journey is a testament to his commitment to educational equity. Click the link in the first comment to explore Harper's mission and the current state of DEI in higher education.

This Pride Month, let's shine a light on the mental health challenges faced by the LGBTQIA+ community. Did you know LGBTQIA+ adults are twice as likely to be diagnosed with depression? This isn't self-inflicted but due to external pressures like stigma and discrimination. To combat this, we've compiled a list of vital resources. One accepting adult can reduce suicide risk by 40% for LGBTQIA+ youth. Let's make a difference together. ❤️ #PrideMonth #MentalHealthMatters
