Leveling the Playing Field: Education Equity for Every Student
The Education Equity Initiative within Take Lead recognizes the systemic barriers and disparities that exist within educational systems and aims to address them head-on. Students participating in this initiative engage in comprehensive research, analysis, and advocacy to foster equitable educational opportunities. Through their exploration of educational disparities, students gain a deep understanding of the root causes and develop innovative solutions to promote fairness and inclusivity. Through this work, students in the Education Equity Initiative become catalysts for change, working towards a future where every person has an equal opportunity to thrive academically and fulfill their potential.
