The Equity Lab seeks to disrupt racial and ethnic inequity by engaging organizations in issues of race, equity, diversity, and inclusion (REDI).

The Montessori community has several wonderful programs, including American Montessori Society's Emerging Leadership Fellowship Program, Association Montessori International/USA's Refresher Courses, and Whole School Leadership's signature programs.
All Means All is for school and system leaders deeply committed to fostering inclusive communities and equitable outcomes for all students but who may feel overwhelmed or without a clear path. Their 15-month leadership development cohort provides a thoughtful and transformative approach to building better overall schools while closing disproportionalities for students with disabilities and other intersectional identities.

We encourage school founders and leaders of high-performing public schools in the Coalition to embrace diversity while serving as a beacon and resource for new founders and other school leaders interested in creating integrated charter schools.
