We partnered with Alliance College-Ready Public Schools (ACRPS) to articulate a strategic plan centering racial justice and stakeholder experience in the organization’s strategic priorities, goals and practices. We engaged stakeholder groups most impacted by educational inequities in every phase of the work– including conducting focus groups with more than 300 current students, alumni, families, teachers and school leaders– aiming for equity of voice, perspective and positional power in our research and recommendations.
