E45: Education, Equity& Health

Make time for this Education, Equity & Health episode because it cuts to the heart of the promise to our communities for learning, growth, pathways to success and well-being. Make time for this episode because it’s not just about education, it’s about something so surreptitiously American that people will challenge you for being un-American when you take about it openly.

Here’s the thing: the education conversation is typically caught up in opposing views on just how broken it is and by what means we should fix it. This episode asks you to consider whether it is even broken at all, and whether a fundamentally different examination is needed in order to create the changes require to ensure that every student experiences equitable opportunities to learn, grow, and thrive.

Even though we’re talking about education, you’re not going to hear a word about Red for Ed or the upcoming ballot initiative. What you ARE going to hear are key insights and experiences from three passionate people who are dedicated to a brighter educational future for all.

So let's get to it. It’s time for a deeper discussion about education’s role in community health and well-being, and it’s to do that, by looking at root causes.
