Call for Presenters

Due Date: Friday, December 4, 2026

Share your expertise at the 11th annual Dismantling Systemic Racism Conference. Submit your proposal and help us advance racial equity in education for Connecticut’s students.

Dismantling Systemic Racism, sponsored by the State Education Resource Center (SERC) in collaboration with the SERC Foundation, Inc., focuses on ways to support, promote, and develop racial equity in education.

The full-day conference supports educators, families, and community leaders who seek to confront racist structures and practices to better serve Connecticut’s students and their families, through advocacy and the development, implementation, and sustainability of innovative, culturally relevant programming. In order to eliminate racially disparate outcomes, the focus is on all students, but particularly Black and Brown students, as well as multilingual students and students with disabilities.
