WALKING
FOR A CAUSE energy and volunteers to a cause, raise money for good programs, and cultivate
strong ties among participants. They build unity by bonding diverse peoples —
citizens of a shared community with different backgrounds and interests.
You can find parallels in the aftermath of catastrophic events such as Sept.
SEPTEMBER
11TH 11. As Americans, we found in the ashes of that catastrophe a common voice. Built
from shock and outrage, it connected us with a deeper truth of which we often lose
sight. Virtually to the person, and transcending differences, we discovered that day
a fervently held sense of ourselves as one people. With the approach of the first
anniversary of that tragic event, we have occasion to examine more closely the spirit
of unity that rose in the face of disaster that day and, in so doing, learn more about
each other and about ourselves as a community.
The Greater Miami chapter of The National Conference for Community and
NCCJ's WALK Justice, so instrumental in heading off bias and intergroup conflict in the confusing
AS ONE EVENT
& SEPTEMBER days following 911, will be hosting its Walk as One community -bridging walkathon
11T" ONE this September 11. As NCCJ prepares to mount this meaningful event on such an
YEAR OUT emotionally charged day, it has an opportunity to challenge the threshold of our
engagement in the cause of social justice by providing leadership in defining this first
anniversary as not solely a day of observance of a national tragedy but also as a day
of reflection and resolve on civil and social justice. This has immediate material
relevance to us in Greater Miami where difference, where ethnicity itself is the lingua
franca, the undercurrent of all community interactions and a matter on which we
have much unfinished business.
BUILDING
UPON THE
PRINCIPLE
OF UNITY
FOUND IN
THAT DAY
How do we mark a day that bears the weight of such complex societal
impact? NCCJ`s Walk as One event provides us with an excellent focal point and
framework. The heart of the event is an uplifting 3.2 Mile walk along the Miami
downtown and waterfront, with Bayfront Park as the staging area and the site of
related performances and programs. Fittingly, the NCCJ walkathon has these goals
for the day, to which we can all afford to subscribe:
It is a day of observance, an opportunity to demonstrate thoughtful
community reflection on the societal and human costs of September 11 one year
out, a solemn marking of the event by honoring those whose lives were ended and
those who willingly sacrificed themselves in the line of duty.
It is an occasion to commemorate the front line social and governmental
institutions through which we manage domestic catastrophes and their tragic
0— SS4
immediacy: our police and fire departments, clergy, elected leaders, volunteers, and
medical and crisis management infrastructure, ... the high water marks of a civil
society.
It is a day of vigilance and resolve for social justice, for reflection and
dialogue, for building community esprit d' corps, the chance for each of us —
individuals, corporations — to make a strong, positive social statement by visibly
supporting and participating in the event.
• And it is a day for celebrating the unity in our diversity, for strengthening the
fabric of intercultural ties that binds us as a community, a day to vaunt our unique
cultural heritage: Who are we as individuals in this culturally eclectic community?
And who are we as a people, constituted as we are of such a wealth of ethnic
influences? What are our values? What is our nature as a society?
Greater Miami has been going through a long, perhaps one of the most
protracted and in many ways painful identity crises of any region of our nation: The
flood here of people of different cultural origins seeking political asylum, freedom
and economic opportunity is by now legendary. As we grope for ways to adjust
rationally, humanistically to such a fundamental and continuing transformation of our
character as a community, we need a day like this.

BUILDING AN INCLU��MIAMI(BIM)AN INCLU��MIAMI(BIM) is a
now Greater Greater Miami Region initiative which will engage
residents of Miami and Miami -Dade County in a
process of community transformation by developing
skilled "change agents" who work to eliminate barriers
to success. The initiative develops awareness, builds
relationships and creates change agents to build an
inclusive community. Goals of BIM include: 1) To
develop experiential training programs to insure conti-
nuity of effective leadership within the leadership sectors
of education, faith leaders and economic opportunity.
2) To draw from nationally recognized practitioners,
policymakers and academicians as advisors and facili-
tators. 3) To engage and support participants on a
scaled, sustainable and measurable change process 'designed
to promote inclusion and equity. 4) To equip leaders
with awareness, understanding and allies required to
transform the community through institutional
change. Advisory meetings begin in Summer of 2001
and the first BIM community leadership series will
commence in September 2001. This unique and com-
prehensive NCCJ program was made possible by a grant
from the Bank of America Foundation.
DIFFERENT AND THE SAME, a prejudice re-
duction program designed for kindergarten to third
grade has been successfully introduced at two training
sessions delivered to . Miami -Dade County Public
Schools Region II , during Spring 2001. Another
training session was held in June 2001 for church -
related preschools and primary schools. These sessions
were made possible by. grants from the North Dade
Medical Foundation, the William and Tina Rosenberg
Foundation and the Christian Church (Disciples of
Christ) in Florida. Elementary teachers and counsel-
ors were trained to deliver the Different and the
Same video programs covering topics such as name
calling, interracial friendships, stereotyping and language
barriers among others, that model the program's acronym
for the word FAIR (Faimess, Awareness, Ineluoion and
Respect). Thousands of etJ iP�9fdes
will be impacted by these training sessi 1f Clerk
TRAINING FOR TRAINERS is the strategy
NCCJ uses to build a cadre of qualified, well trained
volunteers to `assist the small NCCJ staff of three who
deliver programming. The Heritage Panel Training
for Trainers session was held in March 2001 with
twenty-seven senior high school teachers and counsel-
ors attending. Following this two-day session, three
more high schools were introduced to this program
and seventy more students became Certified Heritage
Panelists. This increase alone allows Hundreds of
other students to hear presentations that explore cul-
tural diversity, prejudice reduction and cross-cultural
communication. Now in its sixth year, Heritage
Panel Training for Trainers continues to gain respect
for its practical implementation and its profound learn-
ing experiences. One counselor recently referred to this
experience as "a once in a lifetime workshop".
COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP SEMINARS alert
and educate community leaders of emerging and
pressing issues which impact inter -group relations in
our multicultural South Florida community. Persons
from business, education, religious institutions, social
service agencies, government and many other constituencies
of Miami -Dade County are always represented to hear speak-
ers discuss significant movements and events which require
awareness and/or action steps. The most recent seminar
held June 29th disseminated powerful new information
concerning the current state of race and ethnic relations
in America and also how Greater Miami compares and
contrasts with the data. The NCCJ TAP II (Taking
America's Pulse), an extensive and comprehensive
national survey on important issues related to how
U.S. citizens view one another across racial, ethnic,
religious, gander, regional, educational level, income
and age differences was discussed by social scientists.
Positive and negative results were revealed and analyzed.
02- 6-84
THE HERITAGE PANEL has ---ached thousands
of students and adults since it waL .tiated in 1991.
Two-day trainings have been conducted in thirty senior
high schools and, in many cases, schools have requested
multiple sessions so more students could participate.
Students trained become presenters, role models and
mentors in their respective schools and in middle
schools, faculty meetings and other appearances.
Through sharing their own personal cultural backgrounds
and experiences with prejudice, they teach peers and others
how to model respect and understanding for those who
are very different from themselves. They teach how to
talk about differences without resorting to hurtful stereo-
types and bullying tactics. In the eleven years that the
Greater Miami Region has been offering Heritage Panel
to high schools, dozens of letters and testimonials have
been received about how valuable and meaningful this
training is. Additionally the Region, during 2001,
reached out to NCCJ colleagues in Little Rock, Arkansas
to get the program started there.
WORKPLACE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSIVE
TRAINING is available to corporate and government
organizations interested in educating their employees op
how to maximize the benefits of a diverse, and inclusive
workforce. Each client receives a customized assessment
and program based on the skill levels and basic human
relations learning experiences they wish to implement.
Follow-up and advance programs are specially designed
according to the client's wants and needs.
CLERGY DIALOGUE, ongoing in NCCJ's Greater
Miami Region since the 1930'x, stays contemporary by
addressing theological. and community -oriented issues,
which, in many cases, lead to action. Clergy Dialogue
has always publicly pupported any house of worship that
has, in any way, been desecrated. This is possible because
of the close ties of friendship and respect that are gener-
ated through honest and candid dialogue meetings. Dur-
ing 2001, Minister Freeman Wyche, Church of Christ
of Liberty City, has been chairperson and host at the
monthly meetings. Also, through association with reli-
gious leaders of all faiths, NCCJ has been able to put
together many valuable interfaith panels. Most recently,
five Clergy Dialogue members participated id an ex-
tremely meaningful and informational forum at the San-
ford L. Ziff Jewish Museum of Florida in cooperation
with the museum's exhibit on "The Art of Hatred—
students in 4th +o 8th grade. This unique program
offers training university education majors who, in
turn, deliver the skills to the elementary/middle school
students. NCCJ has been piloting this program with
Barry University for three years. In Fall 2001, Florida
International University will be introduced to the concept..
The elementary/middle school students are trained in four
sessions: "Getting to Know You","Stereotyp' g",
m
"Prejudice and Discrimination", and "How I Can Maize a
Difference". The university students are graded by their
professors on how they plan and present the sessions
after they are given guidance by NCCJ staff. Evaluations
from both the university students and elementary/middle
school students show that this kind of partnering 4th
to 8th grade and university students is a fresh and
effective way to train.
MEDIA AWARDS CONTEST FOR HIGH
SCHOOL JOURNALISTS is now in its seventh
year of honoring young journalists for their contribu-
tions, in print, of raising consciousness about positive
inter -group relations in Miami -Dade County. Students
must have had their articles published in their school
newspapers or elsewhere as this is not an essay contest.
Their articles must describe challenges of living in a
multicultural community and tell of resolutions to
problems dealing with differences. Also, they may
write articles to familiarize people about different cul-
tures, religions, traditions and values of those who make
up our many populations, In May 2001, scholarships
from the Frank J. Magrath Fund and plaques were
presented to students from Palmetto, Coral Reef and
Killian Senior High Schools for submitting the top
entries. Professional media people serve as judges and
the students and their parents and teachers are hosted
by The Miami Herald for the Awards ceremonies and
luncheon.
CONSULTATIONS/MEMBERSHIPS with other
agencies, educational institutions and religious bodies
are a regular undertaking of the Greater Miami Region.

The vision of The National Conference for Community and Justice
(NCCJ) is to build community among our diverse peoples in order
to make America a better place for all of us.
NCCJ is a human relations organization dedicated to fighting bias,
bigotry and racism in America. We promote understanding and
respect among all races, religions, and cultures through advocacy,
conflict resolution, and education.
WE OPEN MINDS
Building Just Communities
From the very beginning, the mission and reach of NCCJ —
founded in 1927 as The National Conference of Christians
and Jews—were clear. Our founders, including such pre-
eminent Americans as Benjamin Cardozo, Jane Addams,
Roger Williams Straus and U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice
Charles Evans Hughes, dedicated the organization to
improving human relations among all groups, whoever they
might be. NCCJ's mission and its programs nationwide are
designed to achieve this powerful goal by transforming
community to include our diverse peoples in order to make
America a better place for all of us. Through educational
programming, NCCJ builds respect among people viewed
through the prism of difference, enabling adults and young
people alike to work collaboratively to bridge the divides
that separate them within their own communties.

NCCJ YOUTH AND COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP
PROGRAMMING: KEYS TO THE FUTURE
Help Educate Our Youth Through NCCJ's Walk As One
Walk-A-Thon
If the future is to be characterized by just communities, the
place to begin is with our youth. NCCJ has always recog-
nized that the road to the future is paved with the under-
standing young people achieve today and build upon
tomorrow. Our founders, therefore, committed us to instill-
ing "the spirit of understanding and appreciation in
American youth." We continue to fulfill that commitment
with programs that reach hundreds of thousands of young
people each year, from elementary school through college,
in programming designed to break down stereotypes and
build respect.
NCCJ also battles bias and builds connections across group
lines through intensive youth leadership development pro-
grams like the award-winning Camp Anytown, a nationally
renowned NCCJ residential youth program.
NCCJ's purpose and programming have never been more impor-
tant, and educating youth for leading is at the heart of our work.
We invest in developing and replicating the best youth
leadership programs nationally and in regions across America.
Building just communities is a responsibility we share with you.
If America is to become a better place for all of us, then all of
us must work to make it so. We mXjawork aS e�To begin,
