Abstract: The academic success of historically and systematically excluded (HSE) students, including Black, Brown, Indigenous, low-income, multilingual learners, and students with learning differences, remains impacted by social position and identity factors. Despite numerous education reform efforts, equity in education continues to be a pressing challenge in the United States. Many BIPOC solution providers possess the expertise and innovative solutions needed to meet the needs of HSE students, but they often face barriers that hinder their access to districts and education markets. To bridge this equity gap, the Center for Inclusive Innovation has introduced two innovative approaches: Learning Salons and Solution Showcases. The education Learning Salons create opportunities for collaboration and engagement between BIPOC solution providers and district leaders using a five-phase engagement model that allows both parties to identify and address specific challenges faced by HSE students. Solution Showcases provide a three-hour event where district leaders can learn about various undiscovered teaching and learning solutions designed by BIPOC solution providers. This report centers on the BIPOC solution providers and district leaders that participated in the Learning Salons and Solution Showcases from 2022-2023 and concludes with key pivots that education stakeholders can make to foster greater district-provider alignment in equity-centered solution sourcing and implementation.
