NSEA supports educators who are fighting for just and equitable schools in a number of ways:
- We support collective actions that challenge the chronic neglect of schools that underserved students of color and other marginalized young people.
- We champion education over incarceration and fight to keep families together.
- We advocate for English Language Learners and support their demands for culturally relevant instruction.
- We foster relationships with community organizations to support our work with and within communities of colors.
- We unite with social justice movements that seek transformative change in our society.
Our Trainings
Along with NEA, we also help members make schools supportive and affirming places for all students, including LGBTQ students. We do this through student-centered, research-focus, member-driven programs that prepare participants to:
- Prevent bullying
- Educate with cultural competence
- Promote and respond to diversity
- Understand and respond to LGBTQ rights and issues
- Implement social justice
- Create Welcoming Schools
Together, we can create equality of opportunity for all students no matter their zip code.
