THE EAGLE ACADEMY FOUNDATION

The eagle institute

The Eagle Institute is EAF’s audacious response to scale the Foundation’s impact for more young men of color. Through its professional learning offerings, EAF trains, consults with, and convenes adults nationwide to strengthen their capacity and practice by learning from Eagle’s experiences for effectively engaging young men of color. We believe that the success of the Eagle approach is adaptable and scalable in communities across the country. EAF works to fill this knowledge gap in a cost-efficient and effective manner.

With the current calls for equity and anti-racism, educators are increasingly tasked with teaching new curricula that elevate the hidden voices that have been removed from our history books and left out of many classrooms. To effectively teach Black Studies and the hidden voices that are being introduced to NYC public schools, school communities require training and professional development opportunities to help educators navigate the emotions and trauma involved in teaching these subject matters. The goals of the EAF Mindset Readiness Training are to develop the capacity of the participants to:

  • Engage in productive conversations about race
  • Deepen understanding of your racial experiences and perspective to examine how it informs your lens as an educator
  • Explore the distinction between biased beliefs and culturally responsive beliefs
