NASPA Transracial Adoptee & Multiracial Knowledge Community

The mission of the TAMKC is to advocate and provide space for multiracial, mixed heritage and transr

NASPA Knowledge Communities (KCs) provide an opportunity for NASPA members to access information and resources in a specific subject matter that pertains to the student affairs profession and come together through common interests in ways that support the NASPA mission, vision, and goals. Knowledge Communities create and share knowledge through the delivery of educational research, programs, and p

roducts; through the use of technology; and by way of face-to-face meetings, workshops, and/or conferences. Knowledge Communities provide an entry point to the association for graduate students and new professionals, and offer a structured organization for new and continuing members to confirm their commitment to and passion for the profession through their common interests. Knowledge Communities build credibility through activity, consistency, and the quality of knowledge generated. It is important to note that the concept of Knowledge Communities is more than information and dissemination thereof: Knowledge Communities are about gathering and generating information in a specific interest area; discussing the information; looking for examples of practicing the information; and critiquing, evaluating, and making some judgment about the worthiness of findings before disseminating findings as knowledge.
