ABOUT US
CREATE is a federally-funded project that supports the development of justice-centered, connected, liberatory educators who reimagine schooling as places of deep joy and flourishing.
Funded by the U.S. Department of Education grant, CREATE supports new and experienced educators within the Atlanta Public School (APS) system.
CREATE began in 2012 as a partnership between Georgia State and Atlanta Neighborhood Charter School. It now works in 20 K-8 schools.

A compassionate, skilled, anti-racist educator for every student
Our Mission
To nurture educators who embody justice-centered practices, challenge oppressive schooling structures and remain fiercely committed to working with students and the communities they serve to reimagine classroom spaces for deep joy, liberation and flourishing.
