This week, The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights has released a new report,"Reversing the Rising Tide of Inequality: Achieving Educational Equity for Each and Every Child."

In the report, The Leadership Conference explains the current available state remedies for inequity; examines the Equity and Excellence Commission’s findings regarding the inequities that exist in U.S. educa­tion and its five-part agenda to address them; and concludes with recommendations designed to operationalize that agenda and make equal educational opportunity a reality for each and every child in the United States.
