USC Rossier School of Education
Center for Education, Identity and Social Justice
Eradicating Discrimination and Empowering Educators
Key Initiatives
We advance rigorous, equity-centered research that examines how identity, power, and systemic inequities shape educational experiences. Grounded in action-driven data, our work informs policies and practices that drive justice in education.
We build strategic collaborations with schools, universities, and communities to drive meaningful, systemic change. Through these partnerships, we work to transform educational environments and expand equity at institutional and structural levels.
We develop programs that translate research into practice, centering youth and underserved communities. Through hands-on learning, mentorship, and identity-affirming experiences, we cultivate pathways to education, leadership, and long-term success.
