About Equity Now, Inc. 

Founded in 2017, Equity Now, Inc. is a proactive, justice-driven organization committed to fostering systemic change. Our mission is to innovate and implement solutions that advance equity and inclusivity—not through slow or litigious channels, but by seeding strategies, resources, and love that nurture a brighter, more equitable future for children, families, and communities. 

​

Our Focus Areas 

We prioritize our transformational pillars:

• Early and Post-Secondary Education 

• Financial Investments 

• Social-Emotional Learning & Academic Development 

These domains are deeply interconnected, and together, they help dismantle the structural inequities that hinder progress and prosperity. 

 

Our Leadership 

 

Equity Now is led by a dynamic and diverse team with more than 80 years of combined experience in:

​

• School and district leadership 

• Governance and policy 

• Curriculum design 

• Business strategy and operations 

• Community and parent engagement 

​

Our approach is rooted in rebuilding systems, not simply reforming them. We value the perspectives of both educators and noneducators, knowing that lasting change is forged through inclusive and multifaceted leadership. 

 

Our Commitment to Equity 

​

Equity Now operates with urgency and purpose. We believe that education is a civil right and the ultimate equalizer, capable of healing divisions and transforming lives. 

 

We confront and disrupt:

​

• The school-to-prison pipeline 

• Overrepresentation of students of color in special education 

• Low graduation rates in underserved communities 

 

We strive to ensure access to high-quality education for every learner, regardless of race, zip code, socioeconomic status, home language, ethnicity, or disability. 

​

“Our children cannot wait for slow change. They deserve bold action, now.” 

With love as our foundation and equity as our compass, Equity Now, Inc. stands ready to lead and collaborate in building a just, inclusive future for all.
