FORJ@Cabot

Families Organizing for Racial Justice (FORJ) at Cabot Elementary School

FORJ@Cabot is a vibrant community of families working together to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion by offering opportunities for awareness, education, and engagement. As a parent-led volunteer extension of the PTO, we partner with Cabot’s principal, teachers, and staff with the following goals.

• Develop and support antiracism initiatives and practices that reduce inequities in our school community.

• Support and amplify Families of Color at Cabot.

• Help to foster racial awareness and productive dialogue among parents and families.

We're glad you're here and we look forward to hearing from you.

Our Cabot team is only one piece of the FORJ story in our city. Families Organizing for Racial Justice is a coalition of families in and around Newton, MA, who believe change starts at home and in our own communities. We use our collective voices to strive to make our city a more safe and just place, create stronger connections, and raise young people who are comfortable stepping outside of their comfort zones to stand up for justice.
