The Teach KC Collaborative is an innovative initiative in Kansas City that builds pathways from education to economic mobility for BIPOC individuals, focusing on enhancing college readiness and workforce preparation. It seeks to dismantle economic barriers and increase diversity among educators by providing comprehensive support such as scholarships, professional development, and homeownership incentives. This collaborative effort, supported by the Kauffman Foundation, aims to foster a culturally competent workforce that contributes to the local economy and community resilience.
