SUMMARY:Spring Training:  Hit a School Funding Home Run for Kids
DESCRIPTION:This year we have an unprecedented opportunity to make public education funding more fair and to get more of it for schools across Pennsylvania. Voters spoke in November when an incumbent governor—widely perceived to be responsible for drastic education cuts\, was unseated while his opponent ran on the promise to increase school funding. A funding commission has been established to research and develop recommendations for a new funding formula.   Now is our time to let our  elected officials know we take investment in education seriously. \nPlease join Public Citizens for Children and Youth (PCCY) for our annual advocacy training to learn how you can win fair and increased funding for our students. \nBy participating\, you’ll be joining a statewide movement. PCCY is a part of a statewide coalition of 50 (and growing) organizations committed to getting a fair funding formula passed by 2016. \nAttend our training to: \n\nLearn why education funding in PA is broken and how a funding formula can fix it; Best practices for amplifying your voice for PA kids\, and; how to develop an advocacy plan tailored to fit your schedule and strengths.\nConnect with others throughout our region who are as passionate about public education as you are.\nLeave inspired and ready to take action\n\nClick here to download a flyer.  For additional information\, email info@childrenfirstpa.com. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Registration is requested. Children are Welcome.
