Please join us for a supportive discussion and an opportunity to connect with other UCSD remote working parents.
Working from home and parenting during the Coronavirus pandemic is extremely unfamiliar territory for us all, not to mention the difficulty balancing roles amid a variety of stressors. Parenting is never easy, but this is unprecedented. You are not alone!
This support group is in collaboration with the Women’s Center and facilitated by Izabel Caetano Francy, LCSW, a Faculty and Staff Assistance Program (FSAP) licensed clinician, who is also a full-time remote working parent.
Open to all Faculty and Staff parents of any age, partnered or single.
Feel free to eat lunch or parent as needed during the discussion.
Questions? Please contact Izabel C. Francy at icfrancy@ucsd.edu

The Education Trust-West's 2022-23 FIERCE Student Fellowship Application | |
The FIERCE Fellowship
The FIERCE Fellowship is a leadership opportunity for undergraduate college and university students attending public institutions in California that runs from October 2022 to June 2023 and aims to build a network of students who can elevate their perspectives to influence educational equity through funding decisions. Fellows will develop leadership and advocacy skills to push for educational equity in their communities, mainly related to how state and federal COVID recovery funds are used in California to pursue educational justice.
The goal of the fellowship is to center students in budget decisions of the state’s public college and university systems. Fellows will be able to build out campus-specific goals for COVID-19 funding and, as a cohort, push for state-level recommendations in alignment with ETW’s Voices from California Higher Education brief.
Qualifications and Experience
The ideal candidate for this fellowship would be an undergraduate student of color currently enrolled at a public higher education institution in California and has the following qualities:
- Passion for improving the educational experiences and outcomes for low-income students and students of color,
- Excited about building community with student advocates across the state,
- Would like to deepen their understanding of how California’s public colleges can center equity in funding decisions, and
- Interested in pursuing a career in education policy, research, and advocacy.
- Strong interpersonal and written communication skills.
- Committed to “Walking the Talk,” which means operating with an understanding that systemic and institutionalized racism significantly affect communities of color and the historical impact of privilege and power on American systems.
- Self-reflective, open to honest conversations about race, identity, and privilege and how these forces impact our internal and external work.
We encourage students with varying levels of advocacy experience to apply. All students regardless of citizenship status are eligible to apply. If you have any questions about this opportunity, please contact Clara Medina at cmedina@edtrustwest.org.
