All are invited to the second annual Medford’s Diversity Day, presented by the Center for Citizenship and Social Responsibility at Medford High School in partnership with Mayor Stephanie Burke’s office and the city’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion. The event will feature food, games, music and performances.

Established in 2013, the purpose of the Center for Citizenship and Social Responsibility (CCSR) is to provide instructional resources, activities, coordination, and training to support its mission of developing responsible global citizens who will be positive contributors to society. The center works with teachers, administrators, students, and community members to develop a system-wide plan to integrate social-emotional learning, financial literacy, citizenship, career awareness, resiliency, and social intelligence into the district curriculum and activities.

Funding for Diversity Day was provided partially by Cummings Foundation, the Krystle Campbell Betterment Project (Boston Foundation), the Medford Arts Council and the Mystic Valley Branch NAACP.
