A Message from the Dean Heading link

This issue of Affirmations features stories of Jane Addams faculty, staff and alumni who are using their expertise, caring, and desire to make Chicago and the communities they call home, if not this world, a better place. Among the stories are the life of a labor organizer and mental health specialist, the heroic efforts of a hospital administrator, and a faculty member’s participation in a program that enhances her ability to better inform the public about social justice matters. I hope you enjoy it.
Sincerely,
Creasie Finney Hairston, PhD
Dean and Professor
