The COVID-19 pandemic and attendant economic crisis are exposing and exacerbating the deeply inequitable and racist ways that education is funded, and all the problems that result ranging from exclusionary discipline to inadequate staffing to lack of internet access. This workshop explores the exploding challenge of school resource inequity and its destructive impacts. Hear from leaders who are tackling this crisis at the national, state, and local levels to create a path to educational success and racial equity with the support of collaborative philanthropy. Join Dr. Linda Darling-Hammond, state education advocacy leaders, the Resource Equity Funders Collaborative (REFC), and others to take on the issue that will hit every school district in America in the coming year.
