Social Justice Lunch & Learn Series

The Social Justice Lunch and Learns is a brown bag series developed to offer convenient, engaging, and practical competency development sessions for the PHRC staff, civil rights and human rights stakeholders and people of the Commonwealth. It is essential that all of us who are committed to justice, work to ensure that we are addressing those harmful systems that impact people on a macro, mezzo and micro level.
