Join us for an insightful webinar exploring how housing directly impacts education access in Central Virginia. Based on the findings of the Can We Learn and Live Together 2.0? report, this session will delve into the deeply intertwined relationship between housing and education segregation in the Richmond metro area.
This discussion, featuring Professor Tom Shields, a key contributor to the report, will examine how a student’s zip code can determine their access to quality education, resources, and long-term opportunities. The report’s data, drawn from over 100 local schools, highlights disparities in school funding, teacher quality, and student demographics tied to housing policies.
