ABOUT US
Re.Source Education Consulting and Research is a training, education and policy analysis hub and think take. We will empower and employ youth between ages 16-22 who have been formerly incarcerated, expelled, experienced homelessness or other forms of disenfranchisement to serve as researchers, policy analysts, and consultants to school districts, social agencies, and policy makers striving to address social inequities. It is our belief that these youth, who are often the subjects of research, must be Repositioned as the voices of change. These youth, Re.Source E2 (Experience-based Expertise) Fellows are central to the work.
OUR PROJECTS
Y.E.A.R. 4 – Change Initiative
Y.E.A.R. 4 – (Youth Evaluators and Researchers) Change Initiative is a youth-empowering effort. We train middle school and high school youth to conduct research about school and/or community-based issues. We believe that youth have much more insight into problem-solving. This initiative centers youth as change-makers

OUR CLIENT’S TESTIMONIAL
I worked with Dr. Parker on a research project for a national organization evaluating strategies that promote diversity, equity and inclusion in university innovation centers. Dr. Parker is an expert interviewer with a deep understanding of the research and scholarship of successfully promoting equity in organizations. Her findings supported our existing comprehensive and integrated approach to diversity, equity and inclusion and informed our ongoing commitment to these principles in all that we do.
