The ISE’s Social Exclusion Simulation (SES) is a role-play exercise that allows participants to see the ways in which society’s systemic and structural barriers produce social exclusion for certain groups of people. The SES simulates social exclusion processes by replicating the experiences of formerly incarcerated women attempting to re-enter society following their release from prison. Participants have reported that important goals have been powerfully met: understanding of what structural and systemic barriers are and how they work to undermine opportunity and access; appreciation of practical limits of personal responsibility, agency, and choice; motivation to adopt attitudinal and behavioral changes in pursuit of social change; and empathy for marginalized groups in general. If you are an Adler PsyD student and you elect to exercise your right not to participate in the simulation, you may do so without any penalty. For more information please contact your faculty advisor.

To participate, you must register in advance by sending an email to ISE@adler.edu, please include the date you wish to attend.

Dr. Elena Quintana, Executive Director of the Institute on Public Safety & Social Justice will be part of a panel discussion on alternatives to incarceration at John Marshall Law School in Chicago.
 

The focus will be on the development of a Values Statement (otherwise known as an Elevator Pitch). This workshop will help you examine success, values and aspirations to develop your values statement, also known as your elevator pitch. It is critical during a job search that you can clearly and compellingly convey how you impact an organization or group of people through what you offer. It helps others help you. Getting the word out about who you are and how you contribute is at the heart of the job search process. The values statement helps you with branding and positioning on your resume and LinkedIn profiles. Refreshments and materials provided.

$20 for alumni; $10 for students
