Honoring 30 years of Equity Leadership

Thank you for your generous donation to the National Equity Project. We are a Black-led, multi-racial and multigenerational nonprofit organization committed to developing leaders who can navigate and transform complex educational systems through liberatory design, creating humanizing structures, processes and practices that ensure every young person can learn and thrive. Our approach and service designs are undergirded by the following guiding principles:

• Public education is the cornerstone of a thriving democracy.

• A caring and equitable education ecosystem is possible.

• Belonging is essential for healthy learning and development.

• Equity leadership is required to create conditions for durable change.

• How we lead change is the change.

• We need each other, our futures are inextricably linked.

NEP acts as strategic advisors, network designers and facilitators, coaches and thought leaders supporting education change agents to shift from problems and pain to possibility, shared commitment, and productive action.

Your support helps us continue to work directly with school and community partners, and sustains our ongoing field-building, research, learning, and communication efforts. Over the past 30 years, we have learned much about leading, coaching and designing for equity in complex and oppressive systems. We are committed to sharing resources, tools, and lessons learned, and connecting with others working to create youth-centered, future ready public education systems.

Your generous donation helps us keep developing and sharing resources to inspire and activate education leaders across the country.
