MLK Celebration: Advocacy In Action
Join us in our annual celebration of the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as we acknowledge 成人直播鈥檚 advocacy work in action! 成人直播 alum, Mark Montgomery ('03), will share his advocacy story and a call to action (live on Biddeford campus and livestreamed for Portland campus and online guests). This will be followed by an advocacy fair on Biddeford campus, featuring over 40 local and 成人直播-based organizations, and a postcard writing activity on Portland campus to hand write cards of encouragement for individuals being released from incarceration in Maine (the postcards, designed by 成人直播 students, are included in wellness kits that 成人直播 students assemble at the Maine Corrections Center in Windham; guidance and writing prompts are provided.) Both of the in-person events will include refreshments.
Alternatively, Portland campus students can sign up to participate in a read-in at a local elementary school during the MLK Celebration. A bagged lunch, transportation, and books will be provided. Contact Chris McCarry (cmccarry@une.edu) in Student Affairs for more information and to register.
If you need accommodations for any of these events, please contact Shannon Zlotkowski at szlotkowski@une.edu.
