Purpose: The Diversifying the Teacher Pipeline grant is a 100 percent state funded initiative. It is intended to develop and scale programs that recruit, prepare, support and place a diverse pool of teacher candidates that better reflect the diversity of New Jersey's student population. Through this grant program funded approved educator preparation programs will be able to expand in order to recruit and prepare a greater number of teacher candidates of color to meet the needs of partnering LEAs. This grant program is open to institutions of higher education (in partnership with a high poverty school district) that has an approved, eligible educator preparation program. This is a 19 month program. The project period is December 1, 2018-June 30, 2020. Applicants may apply for up to $375,000.
