Join the Center for Innovation in Social Work & Health (CISWH) at BU School of Social Work (BUSSW) for the first session of the Beyond 2025 Critical Conversations series: Beyond Project 2025: An Action Hub to Advance Our Future.
The policies proposed in Project 2025 and America First Agenda pose grave threats, particularly to the most marginalized among us. In response to these challenges, CISWH has launched the Beyond 2025 Action Hub—a bold initiative that includes a database, toolkit, and virtual series designed to empower individuals and communities to take meaningful, collective action.
In this kick-off event, Dr. Tami Gouveia, CISWH director and Paul Farmer professor of practice and Meg Comeau, CISWH senior project director, will:
- Demo the Beyond 2025 Database: A powerful repository of 700+ Project 2025 and America First Agenda policy proposals, Congressional Acts, and executive orders, with options to search by agency, population, or topic. Entries include summaries of health and mental well-being impacts, source links, and editorial comments.
- Provide an overview of the Beyond 2025 Playbook & Toolkit: A practical guide featuring exercises, action planning resources, tutorials, and scripts to help everyday people, social workers, public health practitioners, community members, and leaders take collective action. New and crowdsourced tools provide users with valuable resources to engage in changemaking.
