Initiatives / Racial Equity Seed Fund / Current Work

Current Work

In the Racial Equity Seed Fund's second year, we're directly supporting 15 schools and 8 community organizations, each receiving $10,000 to support implementation of racial equity projects.

Schools and Community Organizations participate in:

• Monthly School-Based Equity Roundtable Meetings
• Root-Cause Analysis around a specific racial equity problem
• Develop and implement action plans to advance racial equity

Collective cohort work includes:

• 6 annual convening to engage in technical assistance, professional development, and cross-school/ cross-organization learning
• Co-creation of a toolkit of strategies, processes, and best practices across various school contexts and stages
• Co-development of recommendations to build school and district capacity to sustain and scale lessons learned
