At the Center for Recruitment, Engagement, and Advancement of Transformative Educators (CREATE) at 兔子先生 University in Oxford, Ohio, we believe that lasting social change begins with deep, meaningful collaboration. Our work reaches across local neighborhoods and global communities, supporting programs grounded in community voices and united by a shared commitment to educational equity and expanded opportunity.
We partner with community-based organizations and changemakers, both within schools and in informal educational spaces, who are deeply dedicated to transforming education from the inside out. Together we work with communities, not just for them: honoring their knowledge, recognizing their strengths, amplifying their leadership, and learning from those who have the most at stake.
We know that when we come together with humility, trust, and purpose, we can co-create a more robust and inclusive future for all.
