Spread the Word About FFEC!
Our first step is to build a broad and wide network that will help mobilize action. The best thing you can do now is to spread the word to your school communities. Please circulate this document and/or content to your PTAs, other families, and community advocates. The wider the network, the more power we have to compel lawmakers to do what’s right and fully fund schools.
