MEJA is one of the few statewide public education justice coalitions in the country,  yet the struggles we take on are incredibly common. Our bottom-up, grassroots organizing focuses on building strong community coalitions of organizations led by parents, educators, students, and community members to tackle the issues their public schools and colleges face.

We bring together local and statewide coalition members from across the Massachusetts to see the commonality between the crises we all face, share their struggles and successes, and build statewide campaigns based on issues that have impact on districts across the state.

MEJA has centered communities most impacted by the education system's structural inequalities, taken on corporate targets who look to privatize and profit from our kids' education, and pushed to transform our local and statewide education landscape by targeting any powerbroker who to fail to center the needs of students, the hopes of communities, and the value of education justice.

While our opponents often have money, we have people power. But people power still needs to be supported, cultivated, and grown. That's why we are asking you to help us sustain MEJA. To become the powerhouse that we know MEJA can be, we need your help.  

Help the movement for public education justice grow a little deeper and expand a little wider.

In Solidarity,
