WHAT IS AMPLIFY?

Amplify seeks to engage and support educators of color in the Kansas City
community. Amplify will extend to an ongoing engagement to connect educators of
color and support them in their growth and development throughout the year.
These ongoing engagements include an annual convening hosted by the Ewing Marion
Kauffman Foundation and the Amplify Community Advisory Committee, as well as
other opportunities to connect and grow with like-minded professionals.  

Nearly half of our nation’s students are not white, yet less than a quarter of
teachers are people of color, according to the American Community Survey.
Research continues to show that when a teacher’s race/ethnicity match their
students, that academic success and outcomes improve.

Until our education workforce has a balance of representation that reflects the
students they serve, we will continue to build a strong community, ready to
develop and advocate for better practices to recruit, retain, and empower
educators of color.
