A collective approach to meaningful education
We are youth, school- and community-based educators, and Clark academics and students who are actively engaging each other and our worlds through research. Only by cultivating a research collective that brings together diverse perspectives, experiences, and methods will we be able to create the types of practices, knowledge-in-action, and deep human relationships needed for more equitable and meaningful education.

Hiatt Youth Summit on race and education
This annual summit brings together secondary-level students from across Massachusetts to explore various issues important to young people. This has included opportunities to engage in dialogue about the power of youth to make changes in their community and schools, racism and inequity in public schools, and the role that race and class lays in shaping the educational experiences of young people across the nation.
Hiatt Youth Council
The Hiatt Youth Council provides a platform for youth to express themselves as they explore their social, cultural, and political identifies. Council members engage in inquiry relating to social justice/injustice and youth cultures. They also facilitate a youth summit that invites other youth into the inquiry.
