Welcome

My name is Chris Chang-Bacon, and I am an assistant professor of education at the University of Virginia School of Education and Human Development.

My research explores equity in multilingual and multicultural contexts, particularly focusing on the intersections of language, race, and policy in education.

As a former high school English teacher, K-12 Literacy Coach, and Peace Corps Volunteer, my scholarship stems from over a decade of work in urban, international, and multilingual educational settings.
