DESCRIPTION:

One of the four pillars of Unity Initiative is to build Beloved Community. In order to do this, we invest our time in connection, intimacy and supportive relationships with others from diverse backgrounds. All are welcome to join us for this UI Fellowship Hike. The only requirement for attendance is a desire to make new friends from diverse backgrounds and to gain awareness of how to interrupt your own internalized racism, or to process how racism affects your life in a community of others who share the goal of contributing to racial justice and equality. This event will be available weekly unless otherwise noted.
We do day hikes during the winter months and night hikes in the summer! Our current [default] hike location to the Marcos De Niza trail off 48th street.
REMEMBER! DON'T COUNT ON ANY OF THE ABOVE DETAILS BEING CORRECT UNLESS WE HAVE CONFIRMED IN TEXT COMMUNICATIONS!

PLEASE TEXT TERI AND/OR DOUG IF YOU ARE GOING TO JOIN FOR YOUR FIRST TIME SO WE CAN HELP GUIDE YOU TO THE LOCATION!
Also, During the winter months, we are starting at 7:30am instead of 6:30am summer hours, since it is cool enough to sleep in a little :-)
We can also provide the parking lot code and/or meet you at CASS.

The 4th pillar of the Unity Initiative program to free ourselves from the bondage of bias is taking direct action in communities whose ability to thrive has been impacted by racism or other forms of bias.
Service Saturdays, an outreach of ASU's Project Humanities founded by Dr. Neal Lester, Ph.D., serves as “Humanity 101 in Action,” where intergenerational, multi-professional, and multi-communal individuals, groups, and organizations gather to distribute shoes, clothing, and toiletries to our neighbors experiencing homelessness.
This Saturday morning outreach twice a month--or every other Saturday--has continued to meet a growing need in this local community and as mirrored across the US—the need to extend humanity to individuals most denied that fundamental dignity—respect, kindness, compassion, and empathy.
For the hundreds of volunteers they have had these many years, it is a welcome opportunity as well for deep self-reflection and critical reflection on class, race, gender, age, sexuality, ability, mental health, wellness, suffering, loss, and humanity.
Location Details: (Please read and RSVP so I can provide you the parking lot gate code.)

o You will park in the gated parking lots at the SE corner of 12th AVE and Madison.
o The parking lot is just North of the Human Services Campus Administrative Office located at 230 S. 12th Avenue, Phoenix 85007.

o Walk South on 12th Ave.
o To your right, on the West side of 12th Ave, you will see a building "The Brian Garcia Welcome Center".
o Just beyond the building, you will come upon a vehicle gate with a sign "Human, Welcome Center". We are just beyond that gate!
o To the far right of the vehicle gate, there is a pedestrian gate entrance. If it is open, go through that gate.
o If the pedestrian entrance is not open, look for a security guard in front of the building, let them know you are a volunteer with the Project Humanities program and they should be able to help you get inside the gate.
o If there is no security guard, go to the desk inside the "The Brian Garcia Welcome Center" building and let them know you're a volunteer and need entry.
- Volunteer area (See rectangle #4 on the map image)
o Once inside the gate, you should immediately find us in the grassy area of the CASS grounds.
o Volunteers should be wearing either "Project Humanities" shirts or pins.
o There is usually some pre-setup taking place just before the event, then an orientation at the beginning of the event.
o If you don't see an obvious place to jump in and help, or if you have any questions, seek out an experienced volunteer or Dr. Lester.
