In the latest contribution to our Social Justice for Young Children Conversation Series ([link removed]) , Sobrato Philanthropies’ Director of the English Learner Program, Robert Medina, and Vice President of Strategy and Influence, Doua Thor, discuss transformative philanthropy. They share three lessons learned from Sobrato's journey in championing multilingual learners in California's education system:
* Lesson 1: Coalitions of diverse partners are powerful vehicles for advancing shared priorities. Discover the impact of diverse partnerships in advancing shared priorities and advocating for multilingual learners.

* Lesson 2: Research connected to policy and practice is a key ingredient for systems change. Learn how Sobrato leverages research to inform policy and practice, creating a roadmap for effective systems change.

* Lesson 3: Aspirational narratives fuel Sobrato's work for the long term. Delve into the power of aspirational narratives and narrative-change strategies to shape a more inclusive and equitable education landscape.

Explore how Sobrato has successfully navigated challenges, facilitated systemic, sustainable change, and learn about the tools philanthropy can deploy in the pursuit of social justice for multilingual learners and all students.
