Too often, especially in communities of color, schools become the focus of costly, top-down solutions with little lasting impact, bypassing decades of disinvestment, trauma, and injustice. This misses the deeper purpose of education as a tool for liberation and justice for all.

Our young people sit with brilliance, purpose, and untapped potential, waiting to be nurtured into their fullest selves.

Join CARE D.C. for Harvesting Justice: Cultivating a Future for DC Schools—a powerful gathering to reimagine education as a pathway to liberation, healing, and racial justice in communities full of brilliance and possibility.
