Center for Racial Equity in Education (CREED)

About Center for Racial Equity in Education (CREED)

CREED centers students of color, inspires institutional change, & facilitates better educational practice to transform the education system in North Carolina.

Our work primarily operates in three spheres: Research, Engagement, and Implementation. Our theory of change prioritizes expert race-conscious research on North Carolina-specific education issues, raising the collective awareness of the general public while inspiring and shifting the work of educators as they alter practices and protocols to become more equitable.

Ensuring equitable education opportunities requires shifting the policy atmosphere and advocating for generational changes in their impact. CREED will continue to execute a rigorous research agenda that informs the call for transformation at the structural level for students in Pre-K, K-12, and post-secondary.

“CREED's mission and values align closely with my own, so it was amazing getting to work with people who share my passion for racial justice and equity. Aside from this, the team has been incredibly welcoming and positive, and did a wonderful job making me feel valued and heard. I appreciate that they took my suggestions and let me enact my own ideas as far as projects go. ”

Policy and Advocacy Intern

September 2023 - December 2024 Charlotte, NC
“CREED provided a supportive environment that fostered growth and challenged me in news ways. Even though it was a remote internship I felt connected to the warm team members who definitely value community making it a great work space. I liked how integrated the interns were with the entire team rather than solely just working with other interns. This taught me a lot about not just the department I was working in but others as well. I am so grateful I got to work with CREED and highly recommend it to other students!”
