EDC's 10-year mission to support 1 million youth in their pursuit of inclusive and sustainable jobs in the green and blue economy

The four-year, $43.5 million initiative aims to improve access to functional skills so that youth can lead healthier lives, generate an income, and contribute to the social cohesion of their communities.

The National Science Foundation has awarded EDC $500,000 to examine how the integration of computational thinking (CT) in grades pre-K–5 may promote interest in computer science (CS) among students from diverse backgrounds.

Dr. Liesbet Steer, Executive Director of the Education Commission, will join and lead EDC as its next president and CEO, effective March 2023.

In this roundtable, educators and advocates discuss the value of improving STEM education for people who are incarcerated.

EDC has been selected by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education’s Adult and Community Learning Services (ACLS) unit to lead two centers that support adult learning in the Commonwealth.

A beloved EDC colleague and advisor, Sadé Heart of the Hawk Ali devoted her career to ensuring that all people who need a therapist receive high-quality, culturally and linguistically responsive, and respectful treatment.
