In September 2023, CJSF convened the full grantee partner network for Charting Our Course in Baltimore, building on a legacy of meaningful convenings that have historically generated important connections and possibilities. Charting Our Course was CJSF’s first full network in-person gathering in more than three years. Leaders and staff from across the country spent two days together rekindling relationships, forging new connections, healing, and discussing the current state of the education justice movement. Discussions at the convening focused on assessing the current shape and infrastructure of the movement, noting the impact of changes in social, economic, and political conditions on partners’ work, and identifying strategic imperatives for the network.
