This year represents a significant milestone, marking thirty years of dedicated advocacy and collaboration in the pursuit of educational freedom. The journey, built on a foundation of partnership, is now focused intently on the future being constructed collectively.
The core mission remains empowering families with the ability to choose the learning environments that best fit their children's unique needs. This principle has driven three decades of work, supporting policies that create opportunities for students regardless of their background or zip code.
The landscape of education continues to evolve, and the focus is on meeting these changes through unity and shared purpose. The vision for the coming years is centered on innovation and accessibility, ensuring that every family has access to a range of high-quality educational options. The belief is that by working side by side with communities, policymakers, and families, a more dynamic and effective system for all students can be realized. The next chapter is about building upon this legacy to create an even brighter future.
