She has been active in advocacy in the state of Utah and was instrumental in guiding policy makers to better understand the mission of alternative schools which resulted in an appropriate accountability system for alternative high Schools in Utah.

Orchestrating a Continuum of Partnership Voices so ALL Students Succeed
Engagement to re-engagement is a continuum from dropout prevention to dropout recovery.  From sound bites to sticky stories, learn to advocate by sharing student successes and accountability data that leads to effective policy and equitable funding.  Join us as we share the National Alternative Education Association’s (NAEA) and RAPSA’s letters to US DoE about the proposed ESSA regulations.  “Translations” of research data from previous AAPFs and national legal policy conferences illustrate how to communicate effectively our message to state boards of education, legislators, and other policy makers.  Bring your own effective advocacy piece to share during this interactive session.
