Social Exclusion Simulation (+)
Monday, February 13, 2012
1:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Chicago Campus
The Institute on Social Exclusion developed an experiential role play exercise called the 'Social Exclusion Simulation' with the purpose of illustrating what social structures are, how they operate, and how they can systematically block some groups' access to rights, resources, and opportunities required for social integration. The Simulation uses reentry experiences of formerly incarcerated women to illustrate how some community's efforts at social integration are systematically stymied by structural features of our society. The Simulation has proven to be a very effective tool for helping people to (1) change their outlooks and behaviors vis-à-vis important social issues; (2) question prevailing perceptions and assumptions; and (3) appreciate the limits on personal responsibility resulting from a context of constraining social structures and systems.To participate, you must RSVP in advance. Since there are multiple Social Exclusion simulations throughout the year, please include the date you wish to attend.

The Impact of Deportation on Neighborhood Stability and Public Safety (+)
Tuesday, February 21, 2012
3:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Chicago Campus
The Institute on Public Safety & Social Justice (IPSSJ) is partnering with the Illinois Coalition for Immigrants and Refugee Rights (ICIRR) to raise the profile of the human rights crisis that is occurring in our country due to the ever-increasing numbers of deportations. This event is the third of four major events being planned through this collaboration.
All over the country many law enforcement officials are balking at the idea of deporting someone over a broken tail light. Such extreme responses to minor infractions have produced a sense of anxiety, fear, distrust, and a lack of cooperation in immigrant communities when faced with having to interact with law enforcement. As a result, many jurisdictions have taken it upon themselves to reject the idea that Immigration and Customs Enforcement must be called under all circumstances when no citizenship papers can be produced.
To RSVP for this event, please email ipssj@adler.edu.
