Side By Side Family Centre in partnership with Durham Black Educators’ Network, will be supporting Black students ages 6-12 years old, and their families in Durham Region, to deliver highly targeted, community-based and culturally relevant advocacy supports. This initiative was developed in response to identify and address systemic barriers to Black students’ achievement, equity and well-being. 

The aim is to increase positive relationships within the school system and better support Black students in educational achievement and retention, including successful transitions.

 The Student Family Advocate, Mr. Nicholas Barham will provide advocacy support, pathway planning, culturally relevant mentorship programming, and anti-Black racism resources for teachers and administrators.
