Study Circles Initiative

Harmony                Unity                Equality

Powerful – Positive – Stimulating

Have you heard about the “Study Circles” initiative sponsored by the City of Jacksonville and the Jacksonville Human Rights Commission?

The Study Circles are a dialogue program on racial and ethnic relations and I would like to invite you to participate in this exciting venture.

In a

Study Circle
8 – 14 individuals of different racial and ethnic backgrounds meet two hours a week for five weeks to engage in open and honest discussion on racism and race/ethnic relations. Through an honest and respectful exchange, we are able to learn from our diverse experiences, achieve a greater understanding and appreciation of differing cultures, and establish a basis for working together on other community issues.

Join a

Study Circle
today (at no cost) and help make Jacksonville the best place in the nation to live, work, and raise a family for our whole community.
