Funder-only briefing
Closing the inequitable gap between what our students need and what our schools can afford is now more urgent than ever.
Dysfunctional and racially discriminatory funding systems not only rob our children of the resources they need, they endanger the future of our society, our economy, and our democracy.
But there’s good news: across the country, advocates are stepping up to the challenge and winning billions in more equitable funding for their schools — and young people are taking the lead.
Join us as we learn from youth organizers how their energy, talent, and dedication can tip the scales toward a more just public education system for us all.
