From 2005 to 2017 Charity Hudley was associate professor of education, English, and linguistics and the William and Mary Professor of Community Studies at the College of William and Mary.[5] She also co-directed the William and Mary Scholars Undergraduate Experience (WMSURE)[6] and was affiliated with the Africana Studies and Women's Studies programs.[7] Thereafter, she held the North Hall endowed chair at the University of California, Santa Barbara[8][9] before moving to Stanford in 2021. Since 2021, Charity Hudley is Professor of Education at the Stanford University Graduate School of Education (GSE). She is additionally a Trustee[10] at the Center for Applied Linguistics (CAL).

Charity Hudley's research focus is the language of the American classroom, its relevance for the study of race and ethnicity, and how language use in the classroom relates to (and affects) educational attainment.[11] This work aims at bringing knowledge of the field of sociolinguistics to educators, and helps us understand the ways in which literacy, dialect, and individual variation interact.[12]

Charity Hudley has been actively involved in leadership roles in the Linguistic Society of America. Charity Hudley was the undergraduate program representative and chair of the subcommittee on diversity on the Linguistic Society of America Committee on Linguistics in Higher Education from 2009 to 2016,[13] and in 2018 she was part of a special session held at the Linguistic Society of America Annual Meeting in Salt Lake City addressing topics of bias, power dynamics, and harassment[14] in linguistics. She served as a member of the Linguistic Society of America Executive Committee from 2017 to 2020.[15]

She has discussed her book, We Do Language co-authored with Christine Mallinson, on several radio shows.[20][21]
