Community Allies

Parents, families, and supporters are coming together to advocate for the public schools every student deserves.
Storytime at school

Every student, no matter where they live or what they look like, deserves a quality education that inspires their love of learning and supports their emotional and physical growth.

For too long, certain politicians and their wealthy donors have deprived Black, brown and low-income neighborhoods of resources, denying children the safe environment and educational opportunities they need to thrive.  

We are coming together—educators, families, and community members—to advocate for great public schools for all students.  

  • Safe schools and buildings  
  • Funding for small class sizes, technology, arts, and sports
  • Nurses, counselors, and support staff in every school
  • Fair and just policies   
  • Elected officials who support public school educators and students

With your support, we’ll speak up at local school boards, lobby Congress, and elect pro-public education supporters to office.
