Raising Our Voice

For the second year, CIIS’ Center for Black & Indigenous Praxis joined Generations, a celebration of Black LGBTQIA+ cultures in the Bay Area.

The Black Psychology Project and the Center for Black & Indigenous Praxis’ annual celebration of Black History Month returns. 

A new committee will track federal executive orders and assess their potential impacts, to ensure CIIS can continue its commitment to unity in diversity. 

Honoring Dr. King's 96th birthday, we reflect on his enduring legacy of nonviolence, justice, and Beloved Community. His vision inspires us today.

A warm welcome to Preston Vargas, new Director of the Center for Black & Indigenous Praxis
