More Than Professional Development
An Immersive Experience To Empower Educators With The Tools To REACH and TEACH All Students
Are You Ready to Lead Change in Your School?
The Empathy Project is a revolutionary professional development experience designed to immerse educators in the lives of Black boys in public schools. It equips teachers and administrators with the empathy, tools, and actionable strategies needed to drive transformative change. Rooted in The Ultimate Guide to Teaching and Reaching Black Boys, this program moves beyond traditional PD. It’s an immersive journey that opens eyes, shifts perspectives, and inspires action.
An Unforgettable Experience
For the first time, The Empathy Project launched in a sold-out event at the Center for the Arts, in Rock Hill SC with a packed room of teachers, principals, and district leaders. Participants left inspired, motivated, and armed with a renewed sense of purpose.
Educators described it as:
“A deeply moving experience that redefined how I approach my students.”
“The most impactful professional development I’ve ever attended.”
