2026 #TeachingInColor Summit

The Center for Racial Equity in Education (CREED) is focused on closing the knowing-doing gap so we are armed to activate change. By activating the community, we can use our combined power to hold systems responsible for the treatment of our children.Through research, coalition building, and technical assistance, the Center for Racial Equity in Education (CREED) works to close opportunity gaps for all children in P-20 education, especially children of color, with the vision that one day race will no longer be the primary predictor of educational outcomes.
