About us
We unite schools, higher ed institutions, policymakers, businesses, and nonprofits to create systemic changes in our educational system so that we can break the cycle of economic inequity in Dallas County and across Texas. Together, we cultivate a collaborative educational ecosystem with school systems, higher education institutions, city, county, and state governments, foundations, non-profits, employers and workforce agencies. Our true north goal is that by 2040 at least half of all 25-34-year-old residents of Dallas County, irrespective of race, will be provided the opportunity to earn a living wage.
