Cultural Safari - A Diversity Education Initiative
​
Our signature program, the Diversity Education Initiative which consists of the Cultural Safari resources, is designed for school districts and counties and delivered through the classroom. It facilitates learning about the Sikh-American community and augments the Social Studies curriculum at no cost to schools. The educational materials are user-friendly and offer teachers, as well as students, an introduction to their Sikh American students and peers.

The lesson plans are written to national standards and cover all aspects of reading, writing, listening, critical thinking, and comprehension skills, helping students understand the connections between the Sikh American community and their own life experiences.
The road to cultural understanding was never so much fun!​
