How we work

We start by looking for strengths, opportunities, and radical ideas already seeded in your community. We want to understand you so we can best support you—what's working, what's hard, and what would you dare to go for if feasibility weren't a constraint?

Then we plan backwards together in concrete and measurable ways, grounded in where you actually are.

From small humanizing shifts, like taking time to greet each other as people first, to large system-level shifts like cross-institutional infrastructure and mutual aid, we're stoked to help you imagine and enact the future our communities deserve.

Founder Dr. Rebecca Hatkoff stewards each project, but gathers colleagues and friends with niche and broad expertise to support and advise, including: teachers, administrators, HR directors, professors, researchers, educational consultants, leaders across private and public sectors, and of course caregivers and students. If we’re going to change systems, we have to work in community.

    (Co-conspirer)

    Testimonial: “As the former director of the Community Schools Initiative in Los Angeles, I worked with Dr. Hatkoff over a two year period to help educators build their capacity to create relationship-centered, anti-racist, anti-biased schools. Her work led to over 800 teachers and administrators being trained.

    Testimonials from participants, as well as my own observational data, proved to me that Dr. Hatkoff's work not only "trained" educators but also opened minds and changed belief systems for both experienced and new teachers.  Working with her vision and passion make the possibilities endless for our students.”
