Introduction to the special issue, Building a Future for Education Equity Interventions.

Abstract

In this Special Issue of the Journal of Prevention and Intervention in the Community, Building a Future for Education Equity Interventions, we acknowledge how research more often privileges those who write about it versus those who participate in it. The researchers in this special issue identify as women, people from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds, and international scholars. This special issue shares the work of several authors who provide conceptual and empirical findings demonstrating ways to protect young people's dignity and those communities marginalized by race, ethnicity, gender, and ability.
