- "Families don't care about their children's education." That's what Veronica Crespin-Palmer heard from fellow educators, but she knew from experience that it wasn't true. In this inspiring talk, she explains what's possible when teachers, administrators, and superintendents empower low-income families and families of color to support their children's learning at home & lead the movement for educational equity. Veronica Crespin-Palmer is the Co-Founder & CEO of RISE Colorado, a non-profit in Aurora that educates, engages, and empowers low-income families and families of color to fight for educational equity in our public-school system. Born & raised in Denver, Veronica is a 7th generation Colorado native. She began her career in Los Angeles as a Teach For America (TFA) corps member and has 10+ years of experience as a teacher, organizer, and social entrepreneur. She was recently chosen as an Inaugural Obama Foundation Fellow and is a proud wife and mother of two. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
