The #iamuconnhartford campaign was developed to highlight our diverse student body and how each unique individual makes us a stronger community. The campaign emerged from the #iamnotavirus project, a response to the racist attacks against Asians seen across the globe due to COVID-19. The project lifts up the faces and stories of people of color by activating “social change through intersectional storytelling, history, mental health and civic engagement by seeing and celebrating the individuality in ourselves.”
