This grant will enable institute scholars to conduct a national survey and develop best practices in state leadership programs, share and disseminate information, connect practitioners across states (and with national organizations), and develop training modules, recruitment programs, and sustainable funding strategies that can be adapted across state programs and spread to new states.

for a network improvement community that prepares teachers to focus on racial equity
The Department of Teacher Education at Michigan State University prepares pre-service and in-service teachers through nationally recognized elementary and secondary undergraduate and graduate degree programs. The department’s programs prepare future teachers and teacher educators to become leading scholars and practitioners who deeply understand and work to improve education in its political, social, and cultural contexts. This project will support a network improvement community with Minnesota State University, Mankato; Cleveland State University; and California State University, Dominguez Hills, that seeks to strengthen teacher education through a shared commitment to racial equity.
