Through our work to improve education, we help create a world where every child has equitable access to opportunities in school and in society more broadly.

December Cultural Awareness and Recognitions
Perhaps with several major holiday celebrations during December, no recognitions were identified for the month according to PTA.org.

According to un.org, disability is a condition or function judged to be significantly impaired relative to the usual standard of an individual of their group. Referred to as “the world’s largest minority,” persons with disabilities have generally poorer health, lower education achievements, fewer economic opportunities, and higher rates of poverty than people without disabilities.
