About Us
Dedicated to fostering a vibrant civic culture where Texans actively participate in championing public education. The organization works to educate Texans on critical public education issues, engaging them in advocacy efforts to support public policy solutions that invest in the state's 5.5 million public school students. Operating in communities across Texas, the organization educates, engages, and activates advocates, guided by values of integrity, democracy, courage, equity, and pragmatism.
Key initiatives include the proposed Legacy Education Fund, designed to create a new endowment for Texas public schools, and the Community Leaders Fellowship, which empowers local teams to advocate for education. They also provide an Education Advocacy Academy with resources and tools to amplify voices for public education and organize community events to inform and engage the public on educational matters.
