The Anti-Prejudice Consortium strives to increase awareness and understanding of the many forms of prejudice that student’s encounter during the school day, specifically stereotypes related to ethnicity, race, religion, disability, culture and economic differences.
The APC partners with public, private, and religious schools from the City of Atlanta, City of Decatur, Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton, and Gwinnett counties to deliver an interactive learning experience for a widely diverse group of selected middle students that participate in our two programs.
This two-part program provides students with the understanding about the importance of valuing diversity and inclusion and the skills to affect a positive change in themselves and their school communities.
