Join me this month on Afterglow for a lively conversation with ChèRee Wiley, a dedicated educator and passionate advocate for equity in education, with over a decade of experience across various educational settings.

ChèRee is CEO of Diverse Perspectives, LLC, and she has a proven track record of working with diverse populations, focusing on equitable practices and fostering asset-based learning environments.

Her commitment to widening the path for young people to succeed has become her mission and life's work, and her advocacy and leadership allow for spaces and conversations to emerge that truly center a foundational belief that educational equity is about us all getting what we need.

It was a pleasure to have ChèRee on as a friend of the show to explore what it looks like to be in community with like-minded people, what it takes to confront hard truths in our fight toward progress and systems change, how to center people at the core to create spaces of belonging, and so much more.
