Overview
The Californians Dedicated to Education Foundation is a nonprofit that incubates and elevates promising initiatives at the California Department of Education and across the state. To increase local capacity to involve communities in the development of state-required Local Control and Accountability Plans, the foundation supports selected districts in the Bay Area to develop and use best practices to reach out to and engage families and communities. Proactive and visible engagement of communities in planning budgets and goals for school districts will help ensure representation of low-income and minority families, improve educational equity, and strengthen school accountability that represents community needs and values.
