Goal and Purpose

1. The goal of Context is self-understanding, learning coping mechanisms and ways to educate others and ourselves, and learning how to comfortably be a part of the larger FCTS community while still valuing our differences.

2. Our purpose is not just about talking and understanding issues of ethnicity, but also about being present and presenting that context to others. Our ultimate purpose is to establish a presence others can come to, to feel acceptance, understanding,and commonality of experience.

Discussion Topics
