The CUNY-Initiative on Immigration and Education (CUNY-IIE) invites you to join us on for the PK-12 Immigration Literature Conference, a one-day event designed to inspire educators to incorporate immigration-themed literature into their classrooms, fostering deeper understanding of the migration experience.  Edwidge Danticat will serve as the opening keynote speaker. An acclaimed author of 17 books, including the children’s book Mama’s Nightingale: A Story of Immigration and Separation, Krik? Krak!, a National Book Award finalist, The Farming of Bones, an American Book Award winner, and Brother, I'm Dying, Danticat's work delves into the Haitian experience and the complexities of migration.

Queer Care: Unleashing Our Power Established in 2021, the CUNY LGBTQI+ Student Conference is an annual event that brings together LGBTQI+ students from across CUNY who are interested in learning more about leadership and creating change on our campuses and broader communities. What does leadership for social change look like? What does an inclusive CUNY look like? This free conference encompasses food, workshops, a resource fair, a keynote address, and most importantly, bringing together queer & trans students, faculty and staff, and allies. This conference is held at a new CUNY college every year. Reach out to your CUNY LGBTQI+ Council representatives for more information on this conference and how to get involved! This event is organized by the CUNY LGBTQI+ Council. Participation in this Pride event is made possible due to generous funding from the New York City Council Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, and Asexual Caucus and the Office of the Mayor, and supported by The LaGuardia and Wagner Archives.
