Every classroom holds the promise of a brighter future. But for too many students across Pennsylvania, that promise is not fully realized by the lack of teachers who reflect and understand their backgrounds, cultures, and lived experiences. At PEDC, we are changing that reality.
The support of our partners and community members fuels this transformation. When you give to PEDC, you are:
Developing pathways for diverse teacher candidates and culturally affirming educators and leaders, ensuring they receive the support and resources they need to succeed. Learn more about What We Do.
Advocating for systemic changes that make schools more inclusive, equitable, and representative of the students they serve. See our latest Policy & Advocacy work.
Expanding our reach and sustaining our impact by providing critical backbone resources, knowledge, community and tools to create truly affirming learning environments. Read about PEDC's reach and how we have enacted change.
