Each year, the Collaborative hosts their multi-day Annual Education Conference that brings together hundreds of NYC educators to learn and explore ways to promote equity and inclusion for historically underserved students.
Recent past keynote speakers have included:
Dr. Monique Morris
Dr. Chris Emdin
Dr. Rosemarie Allen
Brian Mendler
Dr. Diane Fenner
Nathan Levenson
Dr. Jamila Lyiscott
Attendance at the conference is just one of the many benefits of Collaborative membership.
In Day 1 of our Annual Education Conference, we’ll hear motivating keynotes from Monique Morris and Diane Fenner. Participants will also have their choice of breakout sessions to learn how to design truly equitable and accessible learning environments for all.
In Day 2 of our Annual Education Conference, Nita Creekmore will deliver an inspiring keynote address, with several breakout sessions following to address ways to engage ALL stakeholders in our schools.
Note that one ticket will get attendees into BOTH days of the conference.
