We are the National Equity Project.

We envision a future where every young person, in every community, belongs, learns, and flourishes, and where the differences between us become the source of our collective power.


We partner with education leaders, communities, and organizations to build the relationships, capacity, and systems needed to make equity-centered change a daily practice.

Our Priorities

We Believe

Public education is the cornerstone of a thriving democracy.

A caring and equitable education ecosystem is possible.

Belonging is essential for healthy learning and development.

Leadership is required to create conditions for durable change.

How we lead change is the change.

We need each other, our futures are inextricably linked.
