A Community for
Educators of Color

to connect, heal, and thrive together!


The Illinois Affinity Group Network is a community for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) educators to celebrate, support, and inspire one another. Affinity groups are spaces where individuals with shared identities or experiences connect, exchange resources, and find collective support. By fostering joy, healing, and connection, we believe we all thrive together.
