ABOUT THE RACE INSTITUTE

The Race Institute for K-12 Educators is an affordable and accessible opportunity for educators to grow their racial identities. We believe that it is the job of all educators to support the positive racial identity development of students; educators cannot accomplish this if they themselves do not have a positive racial identity. The workshop takes place over the course of three 8-hour days. The same group of 20 educators is present for the entire workshop, which creates an in-depth and personal experience as participants get to know one another and support one another to meet their goals.  Every institute includes a panel of local high school students willing to share their experiences with race in school.

*$895 per school for Schools with up to and including 250 students

Cancellation Policy for all workshops, unless otherwise noted:

Registration can be cancelled at no charge up to one month in advance of the workshop. If a cancellation is made after one month, half of the registration fee will still be charged. If a cancellation is made after one week before the institute, the entire registration fee will still be charged. In either case, we would encourage the participant to find a replacement from their school or community.

​The Race Institute for K-12 Educators is a workshop for K-12 teachers, counselors and administrators of all races who want to better understand why race matters in schools. It is for educators who want to build their skills and competencies to understand and challenge the racism around them — and in their own heads and hearts. As schools challenge themselves to build racial proficiency, individual educators often need a space to support their own developing professionalism around race issues. This is that space.
