social justice in the real world

This non-credit seminar series provides the opportunity for students, faculty and staff to learn from researchers, community members, nonprofit organizations and direct-service providers who can give voice to the vision and practice of social justice.

The first such seminar will focus on dental students working with the Healthy Smiles Sealant Program in Cleveland and East Cleveland. Through informal dialogue, the seminar will discuss social context and networking, health disparities, nutrition and genetics. For more information on the creation of this program, click here.
