Cultural Awareness Project (CAP)

“By listening to community members that have firsthand experience with different cultures, we can better understand what's happening in other places around the world.  It opens our hearts to other people. The CAP program works because it confronts prejudice that emerges when we are faced with the unfamiliar. Once we have the chance to become more familiar with our differences, that prejudice will change into understanding. And understanding will ultimately lead to peace and harmony.”
