“We are very excited to announce our new class of over 60 leaders in Louisiana, Memphis, and Washington, D.C.! These leaders are passionate advocates for equitable policy, community engagement, and civic action in their communities.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEach fellow brings something powerful and unique to their communities and to leadership within them. Over the coming year, it is our goal to provide these community leaders with the skills, knowledge, and tools that they need to make a positive impact on their local public schools, their local communities, and well beyond.\u201d said Mike Bland, Vice President, Leaders of Color<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

About the program<\/strong><\/a>: <\/strong>Leaders of Color identifies, trains, and supports community-based Black and Latino civic leaders, empowering them with the tools and resources to advance educational equity and the broader cause of racial justice. The Leaders of Color program fills the gap between the tremendous talent of community-based leaders of color and the resources and investment required to empower those leaders to create lasting civic and electoral change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We specifically support leaders who may not typically have the opportunities and institutional support to run for public office, helping them develop the skills and leadership experiences needed to make national and global impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
