Latinos for Education was founded in Boston to reimagine what education could be for Latino students and families. Today, we’re building that vision by mobilizing communities and developing the educators who will shape what comes next, so every Latino educator and family has what they need to succeed.
Latino communities sit at the center of Massachusetts’s future. Latino workers are a growing share of the workforce, Latino entrepreneurs are driving economic growth, and Latino voters are reshaping the civic landscape. The success of Latino students will play a decisive role in the strength of Massachusetts’s economy and democracy in the decades ahead.

This is not a niche issue. When the system fails these students, it threatens Massachusetts’s workforce, economy, and democracy.
The Educator Diversity Act is now law in Massachusetts. For students of color to thrive in the classroom, they need to see themselves represented in their teachers and role models. We’re leading the charge to diversify the educator pipeline from attraction to retention by supporting districts and organizations looking to implement the Act’s various provisions.
We create change by investing in leaders, working alongside communities, and sharing ideas that help education move forward.
