JCEA's Ethnic Minority Outreach Advocacy Team (EMOAT) is a member-led team working to increase the number of Educators of color in the Jefferson County School District.
We see this work through two lenses - recruitment and retention.
While continuing to compel the district to do better, we are intentionally creating space within our Union for Educators of color to speak openly about issues without retaliation, organize around shared values and work to lead in the struggle to create a district in which our professional staff more accurately reflects our student population.
