Teachers Unite creates tools to support school-site organizing & influence citywide change.
Since our formation, intergenerational teams of educators, students, and families have come together to dream up research, narrative, and curriculum development projects that advance the education justice movement. Together, school community members have worked on participatory action research, contributed to collective political education, and much more. Check out some of our foundational resources below.
