LGBTQ Studies
Social Justice

Do you ever find yourself wondering how to make the world a better place? A world where people are treated fairly and where there is compassion and empathy for the differences that make us all unique? If so, turn your passion for protest into a study of Social Justice! 

Social justice is the pursuit for equality in opportunity and political structures for all people.  Allan Hancock College's program focuses on how differences in race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality lead to inequities in society.  And, more importantly, what can be done about it.

The Associate in Arts for Transfer in social justice studies: LGBTQ studies prepares students to transfer to a four-year university where they can complete their studies. Individuals with degrees in social justice are prepared to pursue careers in government, law enforcement, social work, community education, with human rights advocacy groups and more

This program will help you to:

• understand social justice and injustice
• understand differences in race, gender, and sexual orientation
• develop critical thinking skills
• create a more equitable society
• communicate more effectively
