The Federation will work with its members to develop a comprehensive advocacy action plan to support quality community schools throughout Illinois.  A series of community meetings will be held throughout Illinois to discuss community schools and what is needed to ensure that community schools have the resources and ability required to meet the needs of the students, their families and community.

The Federation welcomes the opportunity to meet with your community to discuss community schools with you -- whether your schools are already practicing community schools or are interested in learning more about them please contact the Federation to set up a time for meeting in your area.
