Northwestern University’s School of Education and Social Policy will partner with the Evanston Township High School District 202 and Evanston/Skokie District 65 to provide more equitable school experiences for low-income students and students of color.

Ispa-Landa will use this award to develop work routines that facilitate strong, trusting ties with graduate students of color in more structured, intentional, and planned ways.
