What We Do
We work to guarantee every child a meaningful educational opportunity to graduate from high school prepared for college, careers, and engaged civic participation. We use legal advocacy, academic research, and collective action to achieve foundational change.
Legal Advocacy
The Center aims to establish a right to meaningful educational opportunity under state constitutions in New York and throughout the country through legal research, advocacy, consultancy, and filing pathbreaking educational reform litigations.
Research
The Center provides dependable research and analysis to support nationwide efforts to establish strong state constitutional rights to education and to secure the funding needed to uphold those rights for all students.
Collective Action
For a fair society and strong democracy, the Center leads collective action to strengthen education policy and investment to ensure all students an education that prepares them for college, careers, and civic engagement.
