Empowering Educators, Inspiring Change

Welcome to the 2025 BIPoC Summer Conference!

Join us on the beautiful Oregon coast for a transformative experience dedicated to fostering community and innovation among BIPoC educators.

Connecting Through Education

The 2025 BIPoC Summer Conference is a pivotal gathering designed to strengthen the bonds among educators of color in rural Oregon. Our mission is to create a supportive network that champions diversity, equity, and inclusion in education. By bringing together passionate educators, we aim to inspire new ideas and collaborations that will enrich our communities and classrooms.
This conference is more than just a meeting; it’s a movement towards lasting change. We believe in the power of shared experiences and the importance of providing a platform for BIPoC educators to share their stories, challenges, and successes. Together, we can build a future where every educator feels valued and empowered to make a difference.
