Our Mission
The Institute for Educational Equity & Opportunity (“IFEEO”) is a non-profit organization dedicated to
the pursuit of educational equity and opportunity, particularly for disadvantaged United States’ public school children
through legal means. The IFEEO is especially interested in fair and equitable public school finance laws.
Towards
this end, IFEEO is concentrating its efforts towards the creation and implementation of four main projects:
1)
the study of the history of the education clause in the state constitutions of all fifty states;
2) creation of
the IFEEO Legal Fellowship and Summer Associate Award;
3) implementation of the IFEEO Educational Archives Project;
4) grants to counsel for plaintiffs for assistance with drafting an article regarding school equity and finance
litigation.
For more detailed information on IFEEO or additional information regarding any of our current projects,
fellowships/summer associate, grants, etc., please click the appropriate link on this page or About Us.
