TOCM is an educational consulting company that advocates for equity and justice for historically marginalized teachers in education. We believe that K-12 schools are "white spaces" that promote white supremacy norms and values. Our mission is to support Teachers of Color through retention, self-advocacy tools, and mental health experiences and resources.Teachers of Color Matter offers a unique and fresh perspective in service of TOC retention. Teachers of Color shoulder additional emotional weight and expectations. This extra layer of emotionality is not accounted for and can become compounded. TOCM marks this distinction through a differentiated support approach and focusing on mental health.
