*Upholding the Educational Civil Rights of Multilingual Learners and
Families*
Mar 10, 2026 4:00 PM Eastern US Time
States, districts, and schools have a legal and ethical obligation to
ensure that all students, regardless of the language(s) they speak at home,
have access to meaningful, equitable learning opportunities. Grounded in
federal policy and civil rights law, these obligations extend to
instructional access, language development supports, family engagement, and
nondiscriminatory practices that enable multilingual learners to thrive
academically and socially.
In this webinar, policy experts and practitioners will unpack the
educational civil rights that protect multilingual learners and their
families, clarifying what these rights mean in practice and how they are
grounded in existing law and guidance. Participants will also hear directly
from a state-level leader about how these civil rights frameworks are being
implemented on the ground, highlighting policy levers, practical
strategies, and lessons learned that can inform efforts in other contexts.
Join us to deepen your understanding of the civil rights of multilingual
learners and the policies, practices, and partnerships essential to
upholding them across educational systems.
