The CEJTE’s Statement on Growing Anti-Asian Violence
Read our letter in regards to the shooting in Atlanta on March 16 and the growing anti-Asian violence in the country.
The Center for Equity and Justice in Teacher Education was established in 2019.
The CEJTE is partially funded through an $8 million dollar, U.S. Department of Education grant titled, Supporting Effective Educator Development (SEED).
Our Vision
Justice-centered, critical and racially conscious educators who advocate for all students.
Aligned with our vision and in response to national conversation regarding the role of anti-racist education, we have issued a statement “Acknowledging the Centrality of Racism in the United States”. We have also compiled resources from a recent “CEJTE Dialogue on Critical Race Theory (CRT) in Education” to support teachers, teacher educators and parents in learning more about this important theory.
OUR BELIEFS

What We Want
We are dedicated to working with teachers, teacher educators, researchers, community members, and districts to prioritize racial justice and interrupt inequities in teacher education research, policy and practice.

Who We Serve
We collaborate with other centers in the College of Education & Human Development and are affiliated with the CREATE Teacher Residency.

“Urging all of us to open our minds and hearts so that we can know beyond the boundaries of what is acceptable, so that we can think and rethink, so that we can create new visions, I celebrate teaching that enables transgressions–a movement against and beyond boundaries.”
