About the Diversity and Social Justice Grants Program

On behalf of the University Provost’s Office, the Diversity & Social Justice Grants support Western Washington University’s strategic goals for the enhancement of equity, inclusion and diversity. The grant provides resources to actively develop educational practices that support and enhance diversity and social justice in and beyond the classroom. These projects also advance scholars’ professional development, research, and/or creative work.

Key Terms

Diversity, conceived broadly, refers to typically underrepresented cultures, groups, or identities and their relationships to structures of power. (Underrepresented identities might include, but are not limited to, race/ethnicity, ability, religion, sexual orientation, language, gender, gender identity, national origin, socioeconomic status, age, or intersections across these categories.)

As queer education scholar Heather Hackman explains, “Social justice education does not merely examine difference or diversity but pays careful attention to the systems of power and privilege that give rise to social inequality, and encourages students to critically examine oppression on institutional, cultural, and individual levels in search of opportunities for social action in the service of social change” (2005: 104).

Ciao, AnnaPsychology / CHSSEngaging student leaders in community-centered change: Creating a community learning course for psychology students.

This project supported the creation of a new experiential learning class within Psychology. It was conceptualized as a way to create more equity and access to the mental health field, providing students with opportunities to gain skills within class instead of asking that they volunteer time outside class to gain helping-related experience (which is required to enter the field). In a pilot of this course in winter 2024, 15 psychology students participated in 20 hours of training and planned for and led a series of diversity-focused body image intervention groups while conducting implementation research. Students read about and discussed culturally-informed and culturally-adapted mental health prevention programs and considered career pathways within the mental health field. Thirty-one students applied for the 15 seats in this class, and course evaluations and other feedback show that students viewed the course very positively and felt it helped to support their career development and skill-building within mental health intervention implementation in real-world settings.

Sas, MaiGeology / CSE

Unlearning Racism in the Geosciences: Sustaining the momentum of an existing, transformative, but inadequately supported organizationReceipt of this grant (along with the sibling grant to Dr. Allison Pfeiffer) helped reshape the Geology Department’s Unlearning Racism in Geoscience (URGE) Pod working model. Since March 2023 the Pod has been remodeled to rid of thematic working groups, which were essentially sub-groups with members working on action items, and instead focus on 2-3 tasks per year as a comprehensive group. These tasks get voted on by the larger group with individuals signing up to assist with task completion and allows for more group-wide meetings to focus on anti-racism readings and discussion versus updates from the working groups. This format has already proved to be more successful and has resulted in a geology course focused on DEI topics (offered in AY 24-25 by Dr. Pfeiffer), a website for the WWU URGE Pod with community blogs (e.g., events, GeoHeros, etc.), a K-12 community outreach event that is set to take place on May 4, and more sustainable distribution of tasks among Pod members.

Christine Espina, Department of Health & Community Studies; Amy Rydel, Whatcom County Health DepartmentHealthy Whatcom and Western Washington University Partnership for Community Health Improvement

Building a More Equitable Whatcom County: Healthy Whatcom (HW) and Western Washington University (WWU) Collaboration (Fall 2022 - Spring 2024)

This report summarizes collaborative efforts between Healthy Whatcom (HW)--a cross-sector community group convened by Whatcom County Health and Community Services (WCHCS)--and Western Washington University (WWU). The focus was on improving early childhood well-being in Whatcom County, emphasizing racial justice and community engagement.

Laying the groundwork (Fall 2022—Mid-2023): HW focused on securing resources for the Community Health Improvement Plan through the Healthy Children’s Fund (HCF) passage. Discussions with WWU faculty in early-mid 2023 explored potential partnerships, laying the groundwork for future collaboration, though it was determined that capacity was limited. Therefore, Dr. Espina focused on strengthening HW's infrastructure by developing an equity toolkit and communication tools to enhance community education and engagement in the HCF implementation plan.

Community Engagement and Capacity Building (Late 2023—Winter 2024): HW contributed to drafting the HCF Implementation Plan. Two HW members, including Dr. Espina, joined the Public Health Advisory Board and the HCF implementation team. Dr. Espina strengthened the collaboration between WWU, HW, WCHCS, and community organizations by facilitating relevant RN-BSN student projects, including increasing doula access for Medicaid clients and investigating evidence-based communication tools for pregnant women with substance use disorder.

Our work positions HW and WWU to effectively address community health needs and build pathways for future collaboration.

Katie Rupe, Department of MathematicsSupporting New Elementary Teachers to Challenge Inequity and Create Humanizing Mathematics Classrooms

The SJEC Grant supported the development of a pilot group of first-year elementary mathematics teacher who were recent graduates of WWU. This project was designed to support first-year elementary teachers (FYTs) who are committed to the equitable teaching and learning of mathematics. The grant funded the first cohort of FYTs in the 2022-2023 school year and has now expanded to multiple cohorts from both WWU and Oakland University in Michigan in the 2023-2024 school year. Through the development of a community of practice (CoP) among FYTs in Washington and Michigan, FYTs’ conceptions about equity-based teaching practices are centered. Equity-based teaching practices  are instructional practices that support all students, in light of their humanity, to learn rich mathematics fostering sensemaking, empowering decision making, and transforming inequalities and injustice (Aguire et al., 2013). FYTs are positioned as those with knowledge and expertise foundational for understanding the teaching and learning of mathematics. We draw from their expertise, as well as grow from the challenges that they face, throughout their first year in the classroom.

The research questions guiding this project are: How do FYTs’ visions of equitable mathematics teaching change over their first year teaching? What support do FYTs need to enact equity-based teaching practices in the mathematics classroom? What does it mean to be MTEs supporting FYTs to enact equity-based practices in their classrooms?


Specifically, we are looking at (a) how FYTs’ visions of equitable mathematics teaching relate to how they challenge inequity in their classrooms, (b) which equity-based teaching practices FYTs enact, consider, and seek support in enacting, and (c) how FYTs and university mentors act as critical friends, (i.e., collaborators who enhance each other’s inquiries through optimal feedback, prompts for self-reflection, and support for articulating and making explicit one’s thinking (Breslin et al. 2008)) in relation to FYTs and each other. 

Norda Stephenson, Department of Chemistry and SMATEExploring the Participation and Persistence of Underrepresented Women in ChemistryThis proposal is a two-phase qualitative research study to enquire into the experiences of undergraduate Black, Hispanic and Native American women in chemistry, with a view to understanding the complexities at the intersection of their race, gender, and other identities.
Nicole Torres, Dept. of Human Services; Maverick Tang, Northwest Youth ServiceTwo-Eyed Seeing:” Ecopsychology, Service Learning, and Decolonial PraxisThis proposal is intended to further investigate how ecopsychological and decolonial practices can be applied in a community-based social service agency, with a goal to create a rich service-learning opportunity for both Master’s level clinicians and WWU students in Human Services.
Cameron Whitley, Dept. of Sociology & Environmental Studies Dept.Coming Out on the Farm: Connecting WWU LGBTQ+ Students, Faculty and Staff with Animal Rescues and Sanctuaries to Enhance Community and Support Mental HealthLesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer/questioning (LGBTQ+) youth are among those most at risk for mental health challenges, largely due to a lack of social and structural support. Research suggests that animals are essential to our daily lives and can be particularly important in enhancing the mental and physical wellbeing of underrepresented communities. Along these things, a growing body of literature asserts that animals can be an important resource in providing support to LGBTQ+ youth and encouraging community development. Drawing on this literature, the goal of this project was to create a program that connected the WWU LGBTQ+ community to the local animal rescue and sanctuary community in the development of a targeted program designed to build community through the interaction and support of rescued and sanctuary animals. The first event was held in early 2024. It was a huge success with fifteen individuals attending. The attendance was capped at this event as a pilot program. All who attended, reported enjoying the event and felt a stronger sense of community at the end. More events are being planned. The implementation of the program and research components were delayed when the targeted animal sanctuary abruptly closed, and a new community partner had to be obtained. This project also inspired a new line of research into assessing how animals are important to LGBTQ+ people broadly and an LGBTQ+ student research team was developed.
COVID Research Projects by college and nameWith the onset of COVID-19 it became clear that students where suffering in serious ways and our BIPOC students were especially adversely affected by the pandemic. In Summer 2020 SJEC funded the Underrepresented Student Needs Assessment Project.

Underrepresented Student Needs Assessment ProjectSupervised by SJEC members Aric Mayer and Robin Kodner, four research groups that included faculty, staff and students documented the needs of minoritized populations. This work was done by almost 30 faculty and student researchers who represent marginalized communities at Western. Collectively over 3500 hours of work went into the projects. The collective results highlighted that our students from minoritized populations, and in particular our Black students, are frustrated and suffering under the current structure and culture of our university. Many of these students' basic needs are not being met and they look to the university for support that would help them achieve basic academic goals. In order to meet students' needs, dramatic changes are needed in terms of the structure and function of university programs. This report has been sent to multiple levels of WWU leadership they will use it to defend structural change. See final project.

The needs of underrepresented students at WesternThis group focused on the need of underrepresented groups and specifically the anti-blackness mentation in WWU community. They concluded that increased resourcing for spaces and mentors that BIPOC students rely on is essential. These spaces tend to be incubators of innovation born out of struggle, and the knowledge and skills developed in such spaces can be useful for equity and inclusion initiatives that are transformative of individuals and institutions alike.

The experience of Black students at WWUThis team assessed the needs of Black, African, and/or African American students at WWU during the pandemic. Their findings determined that Western administration needs to do a better job supporting Black students (staff and faculty). Black students are exasperated from reiterating their needs again and again while university officials nod their heads, pay lip service, then take actions that are not what Black students have previously identified. A good example is that earlier in the summer, Black student leaders on campus drafted a list of demands.

Talking circles with students from underrepresented communitiesThis research team hosted three talking circles with students from underrepresented communities concluding the following: 1) racism in Bellingham and on campus is pervasive, and causes anxiety and stress to students and they feel the university administration is unresponsive or slow to respond to their concerns for safety; 2) lines of communication from the university were not working to communicate important information to students and much of students’ knowledge and support came from their community; 3) the university has not been willing to provide broad transformative institutional support for Black students, faculty or staff; 4) there is a need for academic related support that includes a need for faculty cultural competency training for white faculty and support for BIPOC faculty and staff, especially Black faculty and staff who provide support and mentorship for BIPOC student community.

Undocumented students, Disabled and chronically-ill students, and LGBTQIA2S+ studentsThis team completed three distinct projects focusing on different target populations: Undocumented students, Disabled and chronically-ill students, and LGBTQIA2S+ students. This research team concluded Undocumented students report a compounding set of additional challenges that they face in pursuing an education at Western. Disabled and chronically-ill students are experiencing multiple acute health, safety and survival crises. This is amplified by the perception that they are unwelcome, unsupported, and unsafe. The move to online or remote teaching heavily disrupted campus operations and with that, disrupted LGBTQIA2S+ student communities and support systems and more campus-wide initiatives are needed to acknowledge, support and advocate for Indigenous identity, presence and positionality on Western’s occupied land. Increased mentorship is needed.

Since Time Immemorial Tribal Sovereignty Curriculum: Community Partner DevelopmentThis project is intended to further (P-3) lessons to develop incorporating local tribal history and culture through videos and multimedia recordings with tribal leaders. Lessons developed through this project will focus on family engagement by using the PhotoVoice to attract a high parental involvement because it captivates parents’ interests of their willingness to share their dynamics of family, culture, traditions, and values (Dave, 2015). Additional curriculum development will focus on documenting the local boarding and day school history. The painful history of assimilation through education for local tribes impacts the high rates of disproportionality tribal children face in educational attainment. The project will center around tribal community voices, provide an anti-racist framework for additional curricula, and counter the erasure of tribal history.

Introduction to Ethnic Studies and Research Justice: The Whatcom County Rebel ArchiveThis grant is to create the Whatcom County Rebel Archive, a digital collection that will archive the freedom dreams of local activists, both past and present. He imagines the archive containing three forms of content: primary documents, oral history interviews, and student research. The Whatcom County Rebel Archive serves three important strategic goals set out by the Ethnic Studies Faculty Collective, of which I am a member. One, it will introduce students to community-engaged research methodologies. Two, it will provide an important classroom resource for teaching local social movement history, which will be linked to American Cultural Studies (AMST) 301: Comparative Cultural Studies. Third, it will provide opportunities for Western faculty, staff, and students to develop meaningful partnerships with social justice organizations in Whatcom County.

Sustaining a ‘Grow Your Own’ (GYO) Latinx Early Childhood Teacher PathwayThis grant is intended to strengthen the pathway from Skagit Valley College to Woodring’s ECE program, drawing on a study that found that once at WWU university, Latinx students struggled with increased financial strain, entrance requirements into teacher education, and commuting. Guerrero will collaborate with Skagit Valley College faculty and community field experience partners. She will align course content in two courses and add Skagit Valley schools that be accepted into the WWU-ECE professional program as transferable credit, in addition to the direct transfer degree which meets all WWU general education requirements. The reciprocal sharing of strengths will improve the aligned courses, and importantly will offer SVC transferring students an opportunity to take fewer credits in their first two quarters while them are adapting to commuting, meeting requirements, and finding a campus Latinx community at WWU.

Interdisciplinary Mentoring for Environmental Justice (IM4EJ) Experience for UndergraduatesThis grant will be used to engage two undergraduate environmental justice minors from Huxley as mentors in the “Youth Leadership, Learning, and Stewardship for Environmental Justice” education program supported by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Abel is collaborating with four Seattle community nonprofits: 1) the Duwamish River Cleanup Coalition; 2) El Centro de La Raza; 3) the Coalition of Immigrants, Refugees, and Communities of Color; the South Park Area Redevelopment Committee; and 4) Just Health Action. Over the next two years, Troy aims to develop, deploy, and disseminate a place-based Environmental Justice curriculum for South Seattle youth that responds to community needs and enriches diversity, equity, and inclusion in environmental education.

Paving the Path for an Inclusive Learning Environment to Students with DisabilitiesThis grant is intended to provide students with disabilities (SWD) a smooth transition from their Individualized Education Plan (IEP) in public school systems to Western and minimize frustration. They will conduct a study to determine accessibility problems that students with disabilities face at Western, understand the differences in support that SWD receive during their pre-college education, as compared with the accommodations they receive at Western. Their published findings will and help aid SWD at WWU as well as SWD at other colleges and universities.

Teaching Inclusive Social StudiesThis grant is intended to help 540 elementary teachers in Skagit county retell this nation’s history in a way that does not advance a narrative that promotes settler colonialism and instead advocate a tribal sovereignty curriculum is called Since Time Immemorial (STI). Ferreras-Stone will also use the newly created units with practicing teachers as examples in her ELED 425 to deepen WWU student understanding as well as support their own creation of STI units. She will also bring together WWU student to meet with Skagit elementary schools to practice their STI training in the classroom.
