Our Partners

Our Current Partners

Project Impact aims to collaborate with partners to increase the diversity of the teacher pipeline in California while at the same time working to help close academic achievement gaps in the K-12 settings through intentional recruitment, training, deployment, and continued support of African American and other minority male teachers in the Inland Empire and throughout California’s classrooms.

 

Growing Inland Achievement (GIA)

GIA is a regional intermediary organization aimed at increasing postsecondary credential attainment, adding more qualified people to the workforce, and contributing to a thriving economy. They are a regional K-16 education collaborative that works to achieve educational and economic equity in the Inland Empire.  GIA is in partnership with Project Impact to increase the minority male teacher pipeline. 

BLU Educational Foundation

BLU Educational Foundation provides educational and human services programming to youth, adults, and organizations, with a mission to build healthy, productive communities. They provide youth educational and human services programming and convene groups around issues impacting communities of color. BLU works directly with K-12 students to navigate the process of getting to and through college, and we are currently working to establish a partnership with Project Impact.

San Bernardino Office Superintendent of Schools

The San Bernardino Office Superintendent of Schools is committed to working with school districts, other agencies, families, and the community by providing services, information, advocacy, and leadership – always focusing on students. They joined the partnership this Fall of 2020 and are finalizing an MOU with CSUSB, Watson College of Education, on project Impact programs.

Riverside County Office of Education

In the Spring of 2020, the Riverside County Office of Education developed a program called Diversifying the Teacher Pipeline (DTP) Program. It partnered with California State University San Bernardino and four districts throughout the county to prepare, recruit, develop, support, and retain teachers. Through this partnership, we aim to add diversity to the schools throughout the county.

Partners Working Together

This partnership is a collective impact strategy that builds on the strengths and assets of the African American community and other communities of color, institutions of higher learning and K12 systems, and each stakeholder’s innate drive, desire, and determination to increase the presence of men of color in the classroom and improve the academic performance of K-12 students in the region. We aim to build an educator ecosystem that recognizes, encourages, and values diversity of voice and practice to dismantle the systemic barriers to promote equitable outcomes.

We are seeking partnerships with other educational agencies, businesses, and non-profit organizations, to collaborate with us in the recruitment, training, and development of these teachers in the Inland Empire and beyond.
