Multnomah Educators Rising
Leading For Change, Rising Together
Multnomah Educators Rising is a regional partnership dedicated to diversifying the local education workforce. We build anti-racist career pathways and partnerships to activate the next generation of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color educators and transform schools into gardens of love, joy, and justice for every learner.
Representation matters. Life experience matters. Black, Indigenous, and People of Color educators matter. YOU matter.
Inspire. Uplift. Advocate. TEACH.
Come teach with us — We’re here to help.
