Education First facilitated the North Carolina Racial Equity and Social Impact in Education Community of Practice consisting of a group of 15 philanthropists and social impact agents who came together to ask what it would take to move the philanthropic and social impact landscape in North Carolina so that it operates with a racial equity and racial justice lens. Participants identified several areas to prioritize for collective visioning and action. Education First conducted a landscape scan to elevate the challenges that NC education leaders face, as well as the supports they need, when advancing a focus on racial equity in education.
