"The Merced Black parallel school board has helped me focus on how the school system can have a negative perspective about students of color, and I've learn something new every time I attend a meeting. It has also helped me get prepared to participate in the school board meetings to help protect our students, especially The SB 19 agenda."

"The Black Parallel School Board has helped me in many ways when it comes to being a foster mom to 3 children of color. They helped me get services for them, taught me how to advocate during IEP meetings, and provided training on my parental rights. These are all things I wouldn't be able to do without the Black Parallel School Board."
