Community Reading Project

Foothill Community Reading Project

The Foothill Community Reading Project (CRP) provides a space for all members of our community  — students, faculty, staff, and administrators — to transcend the dynamics that typically shape our interactions by participating in a shared discourse around a common reading.

CRP employs all three dimensions of the equity-driven systems change model adopted by Foothill College while acknowledging that the discourses and frameworks to address equity and inclusion are ever-evolving. CRP offers a democratized approach to learning in an attempt to shift the institution beyond the goal of equity toward social justice through literature. 

The Foothill CRP was developed by Equity Librarian Laura Gamez andEnglish Instructor Amber La Piana, who will co-facilitate 8-week sessions each fall and spring quarter.
