Building a Statewide Equity Narrative

 

The work we do impacts New York’s child care and public education systems, our economy, our workforce, and much more. As such, it is crucial we collaborate with parents, students, civil rights, education, and business organizations to maximize our impact by convening statewide coalitions. To that end, EdTrust-New York uplifts students and families and invest in their lived experience and leadership to inform systemic policy change and implementation.  

The priorities EdTrust-New York focuses on to build a statewide equity narrative are below:
