How do we move from "talking about it" to "being about it?" How do we move our values and beliefs about racial equity from personal commitments to collective action for change?

You are cordially invited to join a learning and design space hosted by PSESD and The National Equity Project.

Our liberatory design lab will build on our region's collective commitment to lead with racial equity by offering a collaborative space for learning, reflecting and healing and moving forward with the beautiful and challenging work of integrating racial equity into our educational systems.
