Grants to this Grantee
for support of education leaders who are addressing issues of equity and education in the South
The Southern Education Foundation is a national leader in the civil rights and social justice fields. This grant will enable it to support a spectrum of diverse leaders who are dedicated to addressing racial, economic, and academic disparities, while also focusing on expanding educational opportunities for students who are underserved. By providing stipends, facilitated learning experiences, and opportunities to meet and learn from peers and experts, these leaders should be better positioned to implement equitable learning opportunities for students in the South.
