Ekite, divèsite ak enklizyon nan edikasyon
CPLAN pran angajman pou l atenn ekite nan edikasyon. Nou te devlope yon fasil pou swiv atelye pou fanmi yo ak manm kominote lekòl yo pou yo konprann inegalite figi elèv yo ak enpak li genyen. Atelye sa a kraze done politik ak pratik ki pa ekitab ki limite reyisit edikasyon pitit yo ak byennèt emosyonèl sosyal yo. Pandan prezantasyon sa a, w ap wè wòl nou chak jwe nan pwoblèm sa yo ak responsablite nou chak genyen pou patisipasyon nou anvè solisyon an.
Gen entansyon pran yon fason yo jan sa a:
Distenge diferans ki genyen ant Ekite ak Egalite
Lokal vs inegalite sistemik ak baryè
Marginalizasyon ak enpak li sou elèv yo (tou de, kout tèm ak alontèm)
Redesign ak defann edikasyon ekitab
Devlope konesans ak langaj ki reponn ak kiltirèl ki enfòme epi ranfòse defans nou pou tout elèv yo
Solisyon atravè divès nivo defans tankou Konsèy Paran ak angajman sivik
Atelye Divèsite, Ekite ak Enklizyon (DEI) CPLAN pwovoke refleksyon pwòp tèt ou, panse kritik ak inovatè pou rekonsidere règleman ak pratik ki limite siksè edikasyonèl elèv yo ak potansyèl yo pou siksè tou de kout ak long tèm. Pandan prezantasyon sa a, manm kominote lekòl la pral wè ijans pou yo pwodwi yon eksperyans edikasyon ki gen enpak pou tout elèv ki gen patenarya lekòl entansyonèl ak siyifikatif.

As a response to COVID-19, we worked extra hard in order to meet the essential needs of families. We believe in a whole-child educational experience. In order for our children to achieve self-actualization we must first ensure we meet their psychological, social, health and safety needs.
Here is some of the work we did to centralize resources and information by category for families!
Pwojè Bodega
Pwojè CPLAN Bodega te kreye pou bay aksè a manje ki adapte nan domèn kiltirèl nan divès kominote Boston ak Brockton, pandan y ap sipòte ti biznis lokal yo tou. Fanmi seleksyone yo resevwa yon bon manje CPLAN pou achte manje ak/oswa lòt atik esansyèl tankou kouchèt, pwodwi ijyèn pou fanm, medikaman, nan yon Bodega (makèt) lokal k ap patisipe nan katye yo.
Jiskaprezan, finansman sa a te ede plis pase 600 fanmi (epi plis toujou) achte ak diyite nan yon makèt lokal ki abitye pou manje fre!
