Speak Up for Students Our Voice Is Our Power

We’ll advocate for fully funded public schools. We’ll dismantle unjust systems. We’ll give our students the opportunities they need to succeed. Help us make it happen.

“I am an AEA member because advocacy is important, and AEA continuously advocates for students and educators. Until I became an AEA member, I did not realize all of the different ways that we can advocate for our students and schools. It is empowering to be a greater part of that process.”
Quote by: Kareem Neal, 2019 Arizona Teacher of the Year, 2022 National Teachers Hall of Fame, and Phoenix Union High School District Classroom Teachers Association member.
