The Center for the Advancement of Languages, Education, and Communities is a nonprofit organization with a focus on multilingualism, cross-cultural understanding, and the dissemination of ideas. Our mission is to transform lives by helping linguistic communities create innovative programs, and by supporting parents and educators through research, publications, mentoring, and connections.

We seek to serve multiple communities through our flagship programs which include:

  • TBR Books, our publishing arm; which publishes research, essays, and case studies with a focus on innovative ideas for education, languages, and cultural development;
  • thebilingualrevolution.info, an online platform which provides information, coaching, support to multilingual familiesseeking to create dual-language programs in schools;
  • newyorkinfrenchnet, an online platform which provides collaborative tools to support New York’s Francophone community and the diversity of people who speak French.

We also support parents and educators interested in advancing languages, education, and communities. We participate in events and conferences that promote multilingualism and cultural development. We provide consulting for school leaders and educators who implement multilingual programs in their school. For more information and ways you can support our mission, visit
