Popis: The following report is a qualitative case study of five multicultural liaisons who belong to the same communities for whom they interpret, families with refugee backgrounds in two school districts in a Northeastern state. Using Tara Yosso's (2005) community cultural wealth (CCW) model, which draws from Critical Race Theory, we examine the interview data to reconceptualize the resource potential of their roles as community insiders to advocate for the families in two school districts in the Northeast. To understand their perspectives, we examined the following question: in what ways do multicultural liaisons draw upon CCW to transform schooling for families with refugee experiences during a Covid-19 school year? The findings highlight the shift in the way liaisons think about their roles and equity during the pandemic.
