Poverty and Inequality

Research has shown that inequality still features prominently in the US educational system and that racial and socioeconomic achievement gaps have significant long-term effects for disadvantaged students. Reducing educational inequality is a priority for educators, administrators, and policymakers. CEPA provides empirical research that explores a variety of issues relating to poverty and inequality in education. Topics of focus include the effects that income disparity, race, gender, family backgrounds, and other factors can have on educational outcomes as well as the causes, patterns, and effects of poverty and inequality.
