Our Mission
Our Mission
Homeplace conducts mixed methods research that explores how sociocultural stressors impact Black and other minoritized children’s learning and development, with the goal of identifying and amplifying the strengths and assets of children, families, and schools. At the Homeplace Research Collective, we “freedom dream” (Kelley, 2002) with Black and other minoritized children and their families, and then use that brilliance to guide the development of new research, policies, practices, and narratives that both identify and ameliorate inequities facing minoritized children and their families today and tomorrow.
