Equity and Social Justice Glossary
Created by RMHS Class of 2025 graduate Jeremiah Sanford, this glossary serves as a valuable resource to help our community better understand the language of equity, inclusion, and social justice. Having a shared understanding of these terms encourages respectful dialogue, promotes empathy, and helps build a more informed and inclusive community for everyone.
