We are delighted to announce our Education Voters Public Education Champion program opportunity for 2023-2024.

This program was created for parents and community members who are interested in learning about school funding and policies that will support children and communities and are ready to step up and be vocal and engaged.

Have no clue how school funding works? That’s okay – we will walk you through it.

Don’t have public speaking experience? That’s okay – if you are willing to learn!

We are looking for individuals who will…

1) Think creatively about how to identify people in a community to engage in school funding issues and turn those ideas into action.

2) Be a passionate advocate for supporting public schools and identify others who feel the same way.

3) Be outspoken and action-oriented about the need to improve policy and support for children.

4) Make plans to lift up the voices of families and community members who believe in public schools!
