A Legal Crash Course: Understanding DEIA & Navigating Risk Amid Uncertainty

This episode is the first in a new three-part series from CRSLI designed to help school leaders navigate the rapidly changing legal landscape around diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) with confidence and clarity. Each conversation in this series is paired with a companion issue brief authored by the CRSLI team and Jeremy Chan-Kraushar, an educator and attorney. Together, these briefs and episodes provide practical guidance and legal context to support culturally responsive school leaders as they work to advance educational equity while staying within the bounds of current law. In this episode, we unpack what's changing in the legal environment and explore strategies for remaining steadfast in your equity commitments, even as this work faces increasing political and legal challenges.
