Steven Wilson - CEO

Steve received a master’s in teaching in 2002 and moved to Coatesville the same year to begin advocacy work in education. He and his wife, Stefanie, co-founded The Bridge Academy and Community Center (BACC) in 2002 and led the BACC through 2007, establishing a comprehensive educational and art center that continues to serve hundreds of Coatesville youth.

In 2007 Steve moved on from the BACC to establish the Educational Equity Alliance to expand awareness for the need of educational equity and to help grow an alliance of leaders and organizations seeking to ensure all students can flourish.  

Steve has taught courses, seminars, and workshops on principles of educational equity and justice for nonprofits and faith communities, and has been a guest speaker in multiple universities. Steve currently serves as as an executive coach and a consultant for nonprofit leadership teams, helping them to foster inclusive environments that work toward racial and educational equity.

Steve continues to work and live in Coatesville with his wife and three children, and enjoys barbeques, trail-running, swimming, and more recently - pickleball.
