For students of color to thrive in the classroom, they need to see themselves represented in their teachers and role models. The Educator Diversity Act would address barriers impacting educators of color, implementing the policy tools needed to reach the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education’s (DESE) stated goal of increasing the percentage of diverse educators from 8% (in 2020) to 25% by 2030.

Help us advocate for students and educators of color to have an equitable and affirming educational environment. Email your State Representatives and Senators today and ask them to express support for the Educator Diversity Act to legislative leadership.
