Culturally Responsive Inclusion Trainers Corps (CRIT Corps)
Minneapolis College
Background
CRIT Corps aims to ensure student voices are empowered to advocate for supports, practices, and pedagogy for under-served students. Two principle trainers help lead the effort, and these trainers are current or former students with a deep understanding of the challenges under-served students face. The corps is tasked with elevating student voice and experience to more consistently guide campus activities and ensure members of the communities most impacted by Minnesota’s educational disparities have a chance to help guide the practices that most impact students.
