How Can Community Organizations Support Urban Transformative Teacher Leadership? Lessons from Three Successful Alliances
Educational Forum, v81 n4 p450-466 2017
Teachers who organize for educational equity and social justice generally do so through teacher-led professional networks. Community organizations (COs) that seek to support such teacher leaders can face challenges in working with their organic and often horizontally organized networks. This article examines three case studies of COs that developed successful alliances with urban teacher leaders in teacher-led networks and identifies specific strategies COs used to support the teachers.
