This feature article charts the efforts of the California Association of Professors of Educational Administration (CAPEA) to move from primarily a policy-driven organization that lacked a significant number of diverse members and perspectives to a values-driven organization committed to equity and cultural competency. This is a chronicle of the journey as the organization moved with a newfound direction, passion, and commitment in a quest for equity to be "the innovators of change in practice that is focused on creating social justice leaders for the future." The article was developed during the spring and summer of 2013 by members of the Diversity, Equity, and Social Justice Committee of the California Association of Professors of Educational Administration.
