                         About Us                         

Empowering Children, Lifting Every Voice,
Building Bridges for Youth, Families, Schools, and Community

Africans on the Eastside (AOE) actively addresses the sources and affects of institutional racism and racial inequity on education and access to human resources, particularly for families on the east side of Seattle. 

​

We strive to reinforce the TRUTH that English Language Learners, Immigrants and others who identify as African, Latinx, Asian, Arab, and Native American (ALAANA) are welcomed and valued partners in our communities and schools and need to be included in this work of building an inclusive, anti-racist society. The absence of these voices is a loss to the entire community. 

AOE’s mission is to serve students’ diverse needs and their families as a unit through outreach and engagement, education, advocacy training, leadership opportunities and development. 

​

We strive to cultivate greater respect for the language and culture of every member in our communities.
