The mission of the Education Caucus is to explore education as an issue of social justice and human rights, and to promote the idea that education is a tool that can drive widespread social change. We aim to use race, socioeconomic status, gender, age, sexual orientation, and ability as lenses through which to view educational disparities. We also seek to provide a space to further process placement experiences and to build community between CSSW students with a passion for education. In the long term, our goal is to establish relationships with local educational communities.
