Marifer Sager leads the Language Access Services Department at Portland Public Schools. She believes that language access/justice are key components to racial equity and that the strategic use of language can reshape the narratives of traditionally marginalized groups and ultimately transform systems. 

Her expertise includes the implementation of multilingual communications, outreach and engagement practices aimed at developing trust and fostering dialogue/cooperation among linguistically diverse communities and institutions. Marifer holds a law degree and a post-graduate certificate in Public Administration from Mexico. 

She is the recipient of the 2021 Language Access Visionary Award, a national recognition to outstanding dedication, profound work, and impact in the area of language access in a school district issued by the National Association of Educational Translators and Interpreters of Spoken Languages. Marifer is a 2022 EdWeek's Leader to Learn From in K-12 recognized for her Leadership in Equity & Inclusion, and Language Access.
