"I don't see why not" "Hey y'all come up here so we can present y'all with this check" 😎
Congrats to the capstone winners of CVILA cohort 5 ! Well deserved ❤️❤️🙏🏽
Had a blessed celebration on last night to honor our COHORT 5 graduates. Blessed that my family (minus my daughter) could be in attendance to meet my #comrades from all over the country. #cvila #uchicagourbanlabs To God be all the glory! 🙏🏽❤️
We're making our rounds on graduation week, talking with members of our cohort about their experiences in this program. We hear from students who share how invaluable it's been to be part of this group, learning from instructors and each other. They talk about how the experience has been life-changing and expanded their perspectives on violence, themselves, and different spaces. We celebrate the diversity in our cohort—from California to Virginia to Philadelphia—and the new family and connections we've made. Everyone reflects on how the peer-to-peer learning, city visits, and time together has prepared them to take what they've learned back to their communities. #cvila #graduationweek🎓 #uchicagourbanlabs #uchicagocrimelab #deanofstudents
We talk to participants from Newark, Long Beach, and Chicago about their transformative experiences in this intensive program as we reach graduation week. They share how the learning has been life-altering, stretched them in meaningful ways, and equipped them with credentials and skills to take back to their communities. #cvila #uchicagourbanlabs #uchicagocrimelab #deanofstudents
It's been truly a blessing on this 12 day 3 city visit culminating here in New Orleans. We started in the Midwest (Chicago) to the East coast (Syracuse NY) & then into the West coast (Oakland CA) then last & finally made it to the South (New Orleans) ! I know one thing I'm sooooo ready to get home #wheelsup ✈️ Lord grant me traveling grace. 🙏🏽 MC&T ❤️
