Annually, the Rockville (MD) Human Rights Commission sponsors a diversity leadership workshop for area high school and community college students. This year’s workshop will be Saturday, April 29 from 9-3 at Rockville’s City Hall.
In the past the workshop has focused only on diversity issues. This year’s workshop, at the request of area youth, will focus on civic action for leaders, as well as diversity.
If you are interested in attending, please complete the registration form here.

I am conflict resolution educator, peacebuilding trainer and career coach. My professional experience has spanned the legal, think tank, international, quasi-government, and higher and secondary education sectors. I have taught at all higher education levels: community college, 4-year undergraduate (private, public, religious), graduate, and international. In 2003-2004 I was a U.S. Fulbright Scholar teaching at the University of Tartu in Estonia. From 2005 -2012 I was a senior program officer and senior manager at the U.S. Institute of Peace in Washington where I managed programs for colleges and universities and developed training for faculty and students. I work with all groups and educational institutions to support peacebuilding awareness.
