Specific Resources in Dealing with Xenophobia and Covid-19

This section includes information, examples, references, sample language, and links for community college leaders to use and share in preventing or addressing xenophobia and anti-Asian prejudice and hate crimes. We encourage users to check the List of Links and the four sub sections regularly for updates or new information.

We also suggest that colleges leaders revisit their own policies on anti-hate, xenophobia and microaggression are current and make them available for faculty and staff, new and old. And, we recommend establishing professional development or training sessions on such areas as procedures for students, faculty and staff on procedures to address anti-Asian hate, xenophobic, and micro-aggressive behaviors and actions, bystander intervention, conflict de-escalation strategies, etc. Sources and sites for training sources are also available in the Specific tools or samples for CC boards & leaders subsection.
