Advocacy and Equity Institute

We are excited to announce NSBA’s inaugural Advocacy & Equity Institute, which will, for the first time, merge NSBA’s Equity Symposium and Advocacy Institute. The two convenings are now united in recognizing that advocacy work and equity work are intrinsically connected in impacting meaningful change in public education. As advocacy amplifies the voices and needs of marginalized communities, equity work ensures that policies and practices are implemented to provide fair and just opportunities for all students. This new and refined conference is dedicated to advancing educational equity and advocating for policies that foster inclusive learning environments for K-12 public schools. The Advocacy & Equity Institute will explore the latest developments in education policy and legislation, aiming to empower school board members and education leaders with the knowledge, tools, and strategies needed to address barriers to equity in education.
