The American Dream Game

We're excited to partner with Dr. Jennifer Yim, creator of the American Dream Game, to bring you a 2.5-hour experiential training designed to spark empathic conversation on how to use diversity as a tool in building a more inclusive workplace.

The game itself is deceptively simple: the first character to reach the end of the board achieves the American Dream of success. Along the way, participants encounter challenges of systematic inequality and privilege based on true-to-life social scenarios. With a blend of lecture, small-group discussion, and game-play, facilitators guide participants through this thought-provoking method to gain a deeper understanding of how to enact inclusion with empathy in a diverse world. 

This game is ideal for anyone seeking next steps to further their journey to be more inclusive.

SPACE IS LIMITED TO 8 PARTICIPANTS!
