SOMA -Black Parents Workshop

The South Orange-Maplewood (SOMA) Black Parents Workshop, Inc. was established in 2014 by Black parents determined to address patterns of racial discrimination in the South Orange-Maplewood School District in Essex County, New Jersey. The organization cited racial disparities in access to advanced-level and Advanced Placement (AP) courses, racially disparate outcomes in student discipline, the dearth of Black teachers in the district, and the racial achievement gap. SOMA-BPW supports Black student organizations in the district and collaborates with the MapSO Freedom School, a community-engagement initiative that focuses on social justice and cultural competency.
