Our response to current protests Read More

The current state of our world and nation are in an uproar. We are all struggling to process yet another tragic death of another African American man by the hands of our law enforcement. We mourn George Floyd and all that he represents in this time of unrest and uprising. As facets unfold in Denver, we want you to know we are here for you.

We need to be here for one another as we process through these events. We need to be open and able to have challenging conversations with each other, so we can navigate this together and seek the necessary change.

We cannot ignore the systemic fear and social constructions that led to this tragedy. It is important for us to recognize, acknowledge, understand and seek to propel change forward. We all deserve to live in a world where biases are pushed away and our diversity is embraced. We are all responsible for pushing the negativity aside and leading with understanding for one another. This is our time for massive change and growth, and we will navigate this together.

At Emily Griffith, and alongside Denver Public Schools, we will continue to be a safe and welcoming space for all who wish to learn. Our staff, faculty and students deserve to be in an environment where everyone is treated with dignity and respect. We do not discriminate for any reason and we value your color, culture, origin, ancestry, class, career, religion, gender, orientation, marital status, veteran status, age or disability.

As a college, we are saddened by these events, cognizant of the injustice, and are reaffirming our commitment to breaking down biases, inequalities and inequities.

Please continue to treat one another with respect and compassion. Seek to understand. Always stand up for what is right, filling in the gap when someone cannot stand up for themselves.

EMILY’S STORIES

"It has been my desire to succeed in life and I believe that having a good education is the foundation of good success."

Lillian is a graduate of our HSE program. Lillian is originally from Nigeria and came to Denver in 2016. She came to Emily Griffith to continue her education. The GED program was her starting point and her goal was to then continue to CNA and then LPN and from there additional training in nursing if she has the chance.

Lillian says her husband encouraged her and helped explain concepts. Laura Blom gave her textbooks to practice reading, Martha in the SSC was really helpful as well. Lilian used the SSC to get help with math questions and Martha would help her out, and Laura was always there and she approached her on breaks to ask questions. The encouragement she received was really important to staying positive and ultimately achieving her goal.

Lillian passed her GED and she is now preparing to apply to the CNA program! “It has been my desire to succeed in life and I believe that having a good education is the foundation of good success,” says Lillian. “I would like to thank Laura, and Emily Griffith for showing me the way and for providing me the opportunity to achieve one of my goals.”

Congratulations Lillian!
