| HCI and CURE Bring You a World of Difference World of Difference brings together individuals to experience interactive learning exercises that serve as vehicles to initiate discussions about diversity. Developed by the Anti-Defamation League as a way to assist communities in creating a safe, non-confrontational means of talking about prejudice, discussions center around diversity and the issues that accompany our changing society. Although our experiences may differ, the feelings associated with them are similar. World of Difference allows participants the opportunity to "walk in the shoes of another." Activities focus on self-awareness about diversity—looking at the sources of positive and negative messages about groups of people. Also addressed is "why" our perspectives may clash with members of another culture. Time is also spent devising strategies to confront bias on an individual and institutional level.
For purposes of CURE activities and discussion, diversity will include: ability, race and ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation, religion, and socioeconomic status. We are currently searching for individuals in our community with a true commitment to exploring the issues of diversity who would consider becoming a facilitator for this program.

Our goal is to bring groups of individuals from all ethnic/racial and socioeconomic backgrounds; as well as all other groups that are represented in our community, to discuss the issues of diversity and prejudice in an effort to address racial issues, end violence and promote tolerance in our community for all groups.
