Abstract
This article describes the premise, rationale, and goals of the Rhode Island Language Roadmap and seeks to illustrate how the Roadmap process can be a vehicle for mainstreaming language immersion education from K-12, articulated with Cultures & Languages across the Curriculum (CLAC) initiatives in higher education. Leaders and faculty members of U.S. university language departments will learn from the Roadmap process how to include stakeholders from outside of world language education, for example, government officials, business leaders, and nonprofit leaders, in the process of curricular reform. The leaders of the Roadmap process in Rhode Island and the authors of this article come from academia, but reach beyond their sphere of typical influence to become agents of change on a statewide level.
