This grant, offered by the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE), is for establishing and operating 10 regional Equity Assistance Centers (EACs). Authorized under Title IV of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, its purpose is to provide essential technical assistance and comprehensive training to school boards and other responsible governmental agencies. This crucial support enables them to effectively prepare, adopt, and implement plans for the desegregation of public schools, focusing on equity across race, sex, and national origin. The EACs will also assist in developing effective methods for coping with unique educational problems arising from desegregation. Activities include information dissemination, direct assistance and advice, and targeted training for teachers, supervisors, counselors, parents, and community members to address these complex issues effectively.
