Educators all over the country are waking to a collective realization: The hope and compassion they have for their students is not enough to counteract the inequitable policies and practices of the school system. Students and communities who have been historically disenfranchised along lines of race and disability continue to face predictable barriers to opportunity and independence.Build Equity, Join Justice

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren: Amy McCart is a research professor with Life Span Institute, SWIFT Education Center, and adjunct faculty with the Department of Special Education at the University of Kansas (KU). Dr. McCart is the codirector of KU's SWIFT Education Center, a national pre-K-12 research and technical assistance center designed to improve outcomes for all students, with an emphasis on students of color and those with the most extensive need for support. She is the principal investigator for many Center research projects focused on enhancing student outcomes at the intersection of equity, inclusion, and MTSS by developing high quality, effective instructional leaders. Her partnership networks with SEAs, LEAs, and schools have promoted effective, integrated MTSS implementation from coast-to-coast. Dr. McCart continues to contribute to the field through presentations, consulting, coaching, books, and peer-reviewed journals on school transformation, MTSS, equity, and issues of social justice, to ultimately improve the lives of children.
