Elections Matter! Increasing ESP Voices on Boards of Education

Thursday, October 23, 7:00-8:00 p.m. ET
Presenters: Meighan Davis (NEA Campaigns & Elections); Additional Presenters TBD

Now more than ever, elections matter, especially for education support professionals. As more and more school districts attempt to solve staffing shortages by privatizing ESP positions, and so much more on the line, including paychecks, job security, healthcare, and other benefits, we must fight back. We have the power to make a difference in these fights, but only if we organize and increase the capacity of locals so that ESPs have a voice on Boards of Education. Join this webinar to learn how to start building a strong organizing foundation at the local level.
