What is Social Justice Art Therapy?
During the Social Justice Caucus Focus Group session at the 2017 Annual Conference of the American Art Therapy Association, members suggested that the SJC formulate a working definition of the term social justice. Creating a definition will help to refine art therapists' understanding of the concept of social justice, and will assist in clarifying the relationship between social justice and the field of art therapy.
While we work to build this definition, we would like to offer an evolving list of resources for reference:
