Coaching4Change (C4C) mobilizes college students to serve low-income K-12 school districts, expands pathways for student success and builds a pipeline of future educators. We do this by recruiting, training, and placing local, talented, and diverse college students to support school improvement initiatives aimed at increasing student engagement and improving school culture and climate. Additionally, over 60% of our college students identify as people of color, because we know representation in schools matters. Professional educators supervise and coach the college students, creating a near-peer mentoring model that promotes growth opportunities for participants.
