Our Mission

C.H.A.T is a community of Jewish and non-Jewish New Trier stakeholders committed to eradicating hate and antisemitism at New Trier.  We stand firmly against all forms of discriminatory conduct, including, but not limited to, harassment based on Jewish tradition, faith, culture, history, peoplehood, and special connection to the Land of Israel and the State of Israel.  We believe in the power of education as a catalyst for change and aim to cultivate a campus culture that celebrates differences and encourages inclusivity based on individual characteristics, in lieu of immutable characteristics. We applaud open and constructive dialogue of curriculum while promoting personal agency of thought. We seek to empower students, faculty, and staff to challenge stereotypes, confront bias, and build bridges of understanding. Working together, we will improve the campus environment and make New Trier safe for Jewish students, faculty and staff.
