UIC Life (Stop the Stigma)
Check out the Office of Diversity's new PDF! Heading link
Please take a second to look at the PDF created and shared by the Office of Diversity with the collaboration of other UIC departments regarding COVID-19 stigma. Now is the time to keep our implicit biases in check, while providing compassion and empathy towards one another!
- DO speak up if you see, hear and/or read false and/or discriminatory and biased information about COVID-19. You can correct false information and offer factual information about the virus: how it spreads, how we can care for one another, and how this knowledge helps us all to stay safe.
- DO offer compassion and support to yourself and those who have been impacted by the spread of COVID-19 and the rise in discrimination and bias.
Be kind whenever possible. For it is always possible. – Dalai Lama
