For half a century, the California Association for Bilingual Education (CABE) has been a powerful voice for equity, access, and excellence in bilingual and multicultural education. Through leadership, advocacy, and a deep commitment to students and families, CABE has helped shape educational policy and practice across California and beyond.
To commemorate this extraordinary milestone, CABE partnered with Jenkins Group to publish a 50-year anniversary commemorative book—a vibrant and meaningful tribute to its mission, history, and impact.
A Story of Vision, Resilience, and Transformation
The CABE’s 50-year commemorative book captures the rich legacy of an organization dedicated to uplifting multilingual learners, honoring cultural diversity, and advancing educational justice.
The Vision
Founded on a belief in the power of language and culture, CABE’s vision has always been clear: to promote bilingual education as a means for academic success and social equity. This section explores the foundational goals and values that sparked a movement and launched a legacy.
The Journey
From grassroots beginnings to statewide influence, CABE’s journey is one of resilience, collaboration, and leadership. This section highlights major milestones, conferences, and policy wins that have shaped bilingual education for generations—brought to life through archival photos, program highlights, and personal stories.
The Impact
CABE’s work has touched countless lives—educators, families, and students whose futures have been transformed. Stories from across the community celebrate the power of bilingual education and the people who have championed it over the decades.
