CREED (Center for Racial Equity in Education)

CREED (Center for Racial Equity in Education) is an education startup founded in 2019, with its headquarter in the United States. The company's slogan encapsulates its mission, which is to close opportunity gaps for all children through research, coalition building, and technical assistance. CREED focuses on centering students of color, inspiring institutional change, and facilitating better educational practice with the aim of transforming the education system. This aligns with their vision of eliminating race as the primary predictor of educational outcomes. The Center for Racial Equity in Education conducts evidence-based research, builds coalitions of school leaders, educators, parents, policymakers, and community members, and provides technical assistance and training to improve educational outcomes for students of color. The company’s work is rooted in the belief that by centering students of color, inspiring institutional change, and facilitating better educational practice, the education system can be transformed to prioritize the lives and experiences of students of color. CREED recently secured a $200.00K grant investment on the 24th of March 2022 from Lumina Foundation, indicating support and recognition from a well-established investor in the education sector. As they continue their efforts to bring about systemic change in education, CREED's innovative approach holds the potential to make a significant impact on closing opportunity gaps and creating equitable school systems
