DHHRM | Upstanders in Action

About Upstanders in Action:

Upstander Institute: Unstanders in Action is a weeklong, hybrid institute for students entering 9th-12th grades. Students will explore the concept of Upstanders as leaders by exploring various historical Upstanders and how their leadership helped to combat injustice. After studying Upstanders in the Holocaust and human and civil rights movements, students create a 10-minute presentation on how they can use their leadership and Upstander skills to identify and help solve a problem in their own communities. Join us in creating our community of Upstanders!
