Participatory action research has always been the foundation of the Rogers Park Young Women’s Action Team’s work and activism. With support from our adult ally, Mariame Kaba founder of Project NIA, we developed a survey that was administered over 225 students over the course of 6 months.
The results and analysis of that survey research can be found in the youth-led research section of this site.
Also included on this site is data about suspensions in Chicago Public Schools and across Illinois. We hope that readers will find this information useful and will use it in their advocacy and activism.
